I see you are in Congo now. You must have jumped off a cruise ship:)
I was registered with the Illinois flag and then F.R. started posting the last comment from the state site onto the main page. I got tired of scrolling and scrolling and scrolling just to get to news/activism. It seems there are some Illinois posters who love to copy and paste really long replies.
I tried to find out how to resign from the state site and couldn't figure it out but I did know how to change locations and figured there wouldn't be a whole lot of traffic from the Congo, so now I fly the Congo flag instead of the Illinois flag and so far there have been zero postings appear on my news/activism page from the Congo.
