Any ideas to take from this class that would work?

Hair, you were doing a really great job, and (I suspect) that you have DSL?, and the ability to drop those pics in. I could probably do it, but it would take a veeerrry long time.

The only problem I saw, was the Posters dropped off, and even if you would wait several days for someone to "Forward" the conversation, that last post would just sit there; and to go Forward >> you'd have to Reply to yourself.

The only thing I can think of, is when the thread gets too slow, to add another junk of thought where the last few threads dropped off, and hope to generate more comments.

But I hate that we just left chapters with so much good stuff untouched. I don't know if it's still a really busy time for folks or not, but that next movie is coming up pretty soon.

We lost power here at 3p and just got it back, been reading The Hobbit by kerosene lamp. hehehe, it seems so apropo. Had a really windy storm, and got some RAIN! and about time too, we're 14" short for the year, and about 50" short for the last 4 years- and Hair, that means NO pasture, so I'm really hoping that in the next day or two things will green-up, and the girls will be happy again.

OT I'm going over to B&N and see if my comments got 'flamed', I hope that would at least open up some dialog, but I'm suspecting that a faith life is not something on the top of most of their lists. I have to close this browser down, and go to another one for that cr*ppy window to open.

Oh, Hair, did you see the post on TORN that described the 'added scenes' for FotR?

I think I saw the article at torn you were talking about - Maq posted it here yesterday? Extended FOTR Script Review

Thanks for the "feel goods" on the way I was doing it, and yes, there were times that I did a mid-week bumper post that brought in something that I thought had been missed.

- Anyone can do that, so perhaps I should publish the ping list so that if others like you come up with a conversation-starter of your own you could ping everyone to it.

I think for the most part everyone is just busy. But I lost my mood too after an incident with that one critic (remember?) - He took a lot of fun out of it for me for a while there... not sure why, I have dealt with other critics before. I think it was the magnitude. Wore me out.

The movie is coming! We need to get back on the ball, and perhaps cover a few chapters per week to finish in time! - Part of my trouble in participating is that I run out of stuff to say about a single chapter after a day or two... unless a controversy develops over something. So covering a few chapters does help me not blow my whole wad in the first post!
