I just checked out some of that other thread...I want to thank you for speaking up for this LIVE DAILY THREAD...
I think we DO keep up tot he minute reports here...and I feel bad that they chastized you so much.
I would say to them...that this thread is a 24/7 thread...and the various "breaking news" threads are not...and out computers, and Free Republic allow us to go back and forth to different threads...they should try it.
Fox reporting the Pali's storming UN in Gaza.
I should feel slighted. After all the work I do to keep things current around here...but I won't. Their loss, their problem.
I like having it both ways, Live rolling threads and also seeing new events posted on a new thread and then also linked into the Live threads,, I and others cross link stuff all the time,, it's a courtesy to the FRequenters of a FoRum as diverse as FR has become.
FR can be read and used many ways,, this thread eruption is to be expected based on the events being of suhc historic nature,
Sometimes, things here get a bit personal between some folks, not sure why, human nature , I guess. ;-)
That thread is now over 500 replies long...so anyone jumping in there is in the same position we are here.
You can see HERE that I am 800 replies behind at least.
But, I scoot up to about 1600 and be up to date in no time.
Cheers.
