Well, gee. I posted in the FAQ, then found an existing thread on "Starting New Threads," so I moved my message to that thread to set a good example. So, then gnu starts another thread on the same topic below the line. Oh, well, can't win fer losin' (or whatever the phrase is).

So, I gave in and moved today's messages from the old thread into this new thread, and probably that won't help, either, so I'ss end it back to the FAQ.

But it does seem that certain people start lots of threads, and most others hardly start any at all. And those certain people often start threads on subject that already have recent threads, sometimes even threads that are currently active. If you start a thread a day, that's a lot. One or two a week would seem more reasonable.

I don't think there should be any hard-and-fast rules on this, but I'd like people to consider the thought of resurrecting interesting old threads and adding to them, rather than splitting and repeating the discussion by starting new threads.

But if a visitor comes and asks for a song, give 'em a link or an answer - not a lecture on how they should have searched, or how they can find the lyrics on the www or by buying the CD. They looked far enough to get to us - don't make them look any farther.
