Thread Name: Starting New Threads: Reinventing the Wheel
Subject: RE: Reinventing the Wheel
There isn't Russ.....and as the guy you are referring to, I agree with you. But the other side is never really addressed.

Let me explain........I try to make messages like you describe not to be too "offputting." I doubt that's a word but.......In any case, while I see that almost always new threads are started, what is there to suggesting in some manner or another that we have got TONS of info already here......and they are free to continue on, add more, whatever. I just want them to be aware of the grouping when they are added and that there may be some additional info on those threads.

IF it puts people off, I'm sorry........But also, I read a thread the other day which had completely BS info on it and if anyone had looked they'd have found that out. But it gets worse....A nice 'Catter posted the real stuff in several long posts. Sadly, ALL he posted was already here...........

It really doesn't matter. But remember there are two sides to this coin. I'll refrain again for awhile Russ. Hopefully I can figure out a nicer way to say things. Got any ideas? You're an old-timer too and always have some good ideas......So?????

And I will also refrain from posting with a link to an old thread on a thread that was just started today on a question we have answered probably half a dozen times...(:<))
