It is not imperative that you reply (immediately or at all) to every single post that you read. Let the post sit there. Come back in a few hours. Maybe now you are in better frame of mind to respond more informatively and nicely. Maybe, someone else has already answered in a more polite fashion. *smile* : If you have an issue with another Georger, politely and maturely discuss the situation on the forum. If that does not work, then take it off-line and politely discuss via e-mail. Other Georgers need not be subjected to the bickering. Finally, if there is no resolution, then report the situation to Hank via Contact Us form (supplying links as evidence). I have faith in the maturity of my fellow Georgers that it should not come to that. *smile* : <a href="http://www.hansmguy.com/wg/wg_pf.htm" target="_blank"><font color="#FF0099"> HMG Public Forum and Currency Links </font></a> : Reason for re-post: I fixed the Public Forums / All forums link above) : Thank you in advance for your assistance. : <font face="Comic Sans Ms" size=3 color="Dodgerblue"> Good Luck & Happy Georgering!</font> : <marquee behavior="right" width=19% scrollamount=2><a href="http://www.wheresgeorge.com/user_profile_popup.php?ukey=ecfdf3f6a8ded70cbe08f1a9b83fe2a2" target="_blank"><font face="Comic Sans Ms" size=3 color="#FF0099">HMG in MAss (profile)</font></a></marquee> <marquee bgcolor=aqua behavior=slide width=10% scrollamount=2><a href="http://www.wheresgeorge.net/dictionary.html#t" target="_blank"><font face="Comic Sans Ms" size=3 color="#FF0099">(Team Aqua)</font></a></marquee> : <a href="http://www.hansmguy.com/wg/wg_welcome.htm" target="_blank"> <font face="Comic Sans Ms" size=3 color="#FF0099">Welcome</font></a>
