Very good post -- if I may I'd like to add a few -- People are able to request all kinds of advice, even many things not even pertaining to our dogs, but our SELVES and families. People interact pretty much daily due to their common interest (s) People, in an easy quick releasing venue, are able to learn or to share far more easily than some who can be a bit shy wouldn't be able to do face to face. Da Bad Not really sure if Helen's one item really IS baaad; The reason I say this is due to the fact that many of us are more passionate and, shall I say picky to be kind hearted -- and vent - the easy way! Hey, how many many times have folks mentioned one neat way to avoid such -- delete delete delete! I'm sure there's more but I need another cup of coffee -- far far too early for a beer. Norma no L lovin' Da List big time!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Helen Franklin" <helen@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 15, 2007 6:07 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] The List part 2 What's good about the List. People have a place to share their excitement and wins. People can come to others for medical help. Homes can be found for dogs in need. What's bad: Angry voices find an outlet.
