As always, Eliza, too many cooks have spoiled the soup! ;-) But then, it only takes one bad apple to spoil the whole barrel, right? We have had story threads that managed to work pretty well in the past, but sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.

Anyway, all people really come here for every day (whether or not they know it) is to express themselves and while away a bit of time.

And in that sense this thread is serving the purpose as well as any other, isn't it?
