Rick - I hope you will continue to add psts about old time country and acoustic blues. Just because some of us { myself included } don't add to the posts doesn't mean that we aren't getting something of value from them. We just may not be knowledgeable enough to add to them.

About "flamers". Many years ago on vacation in San Francisco a man walked up to me on the street and screamed at me - " I hate your shoes". He walked on verbally assaulting everyone he passed. I gave him a wide berth - ignored him and moved on. I wish we could do the same thing to flaming posters. After all - these are just words on a computer screen. To me they're not "real". Their words only have an effect when we give them value and importance. They are sad and unfortunate people. We don't have to take on their negativity. Like a two year old having a tantrum - any attention to them is what they desire. If we ignore them they will eventally move on. Or perhaps assume a name and join the mudcat as members and contribute something of value. Until then I plan to ignore them.
