 Ya know what?  I am getting tired.  Loosing my "oomph" for discussing things.  I am 69. Arguing things.  I am sure many can relate.  Maybe I spent too much time on FaceBook.  So many discussions there.  Argue...No good..takes out energy.  So I will pause for a while, probably a long while.  You will agree that is OK.  Just want to go Vanagon Camping...that's it.

  So...as an experiment in trying to solve communication issues on this fantastic and frustrating Vanagon List...Don Spence, what color is your Vanagon?  This is NOT a trick question.  Any color will do; we don't care about color; we are trying to get to the essence of this communication problem.  At least I am.

  Heck Don!!!  Post some more!  About anything, it will help.  As for basic internet and List communication...I have seen it over and over and over about conflict between Apple stuff and Microsoft stuff.  It is real.  So  much good stuff goes into Trash.

For Geeks.....start watching what things get posted, and what others end up in Trash.  My conjecture is that a large percentage of Trash stuff has Apple on their back line.  Just my opinion....but have been watching this stuff for a long time.  Microsoft and Google...no problemo.
