Folks, right now I have fifty-five messages in my in box and I have to get off the computer to do some of the other things that life consists of. When I get back it is hard to tell how many messages I will have piled up. This is what I meant when I said that the off topic discussions are a problem for me too because they take up too much of my time. So I am going to try something. For at least the messages I have waiting for me right now, if I have a response and the message is clearly off topic and if the sender's email is visible I am going to paste that email address into the address field and reply privately. Now if those who get private messages from me do not have a reply of their own then the off topic discussion could dwindle pretty quickly. I realise that I am running the risk of being overwhelmed by off list messages and if that happens I am not sure how I will handle it. I may just have to start ignoring some of you. But let's see how this works for right now. ************** A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
