I am for new threads with links to old threads by whoever cares enough to go to the trouble to make the links. I hate reading huge long things from 2001 with only 5 new items on it. I don't mind discussing American Pie again and again and if I tire I can not open the thread. Stuff that is rehashed is stale in my opinion. I don't want a transcript of a conversation I had with you five years ago and I don't want a cassette you made...I want the totally new conversation and I am getting old enough to forget we ever had it in the first place. mg
