Funny how this all comes around. Ten years ago, I was lobbying for the
ability to post photos as that was an option at the time, during one of our
major switchovers. I argued that it would make us more effective at
communication which part, where, how, etc. The purists would hear none of
it. Where are they now? Did they die off? I think they all migrated to
Facebook when they got the chance and this list suffered for it. But here
we have a real discussion, not the morass-like structure of FB which is
like a river--anything put into it floats downstream to never be seen
again, the one-upsmanship, the smartassery of of internet anonimity. Just
wish we could have both.
