A little side note, I have been active on these forums from the day I signed up, but I still have never posted an article, they have stricter rules on that then simply posting in threads, I would recommend you just find threads that perk your interest and comment on them for a few months. That way you don't look like a flaming troll when you sign up and post kookish conspiracy theories.

Tahnks for the tip. I'll have to think about my attitude toward this particular "rule." The truth is, I don't have a feel for the FR site yet. On Strategy Page, I usually post on someone else's thread, but I do sometimes start my own. I certainly agree that people who are always starting threads are a drag. On the other hand, I believe I have as much right to do it as anyone else does.

Certainly, I have to reflect somewhat on my experiences from this first thread, and I really appreciate your attempt to be helpful in that regard.
