Hi Bigmck
Yes I forgot to mention the adds for another program at the bottom of the screen, I hate those with a passion.
With regard to Gas prices, we call it petrol over here and it's sold to us in litres. We pay around £1.34 GB Pounds per litre. I think that there are about 4 litres to the US Gallon so we are talking about £5.36 per gallon.
All the best
Tony
What annoys me? Some people on this forum. When you post a thread and it does not suit them and their view they then answer with a one liner, making the thread or a posting on it ridiculous. Sometimes even in pairs (kind of a gang-up). This happened, e.g., on this thread "SOPA, the bill that wants to cripple your internet" and my thread "Web addiction and brain change". I posted a few replies on this SOPA thread and was finally barred when i hit back at them. It made me decide not to be engaged on this forum any longer. I was helped a few times with problems i had and i want to extend my thanks for that. I am, however, done with this forum.
FranzB,
I do not think that you were barred, it was that the entire thread was removed. So in effect, everybody was barred. I don't care much for that idea, because I don't care much for forum rule 8, however it would have been a little better if the thread remained, but locked. It is nothing that you should take personally, so you shouldn't let it run you off.
You shouldn't take things personally, Franz.
If you encounter things like sarcastic comments or a comment intended to annoy you just walk away from the thread.
The good people on these forums far outweigh the bad. :)
Writing posts like official letters .
Starting and ending with some greetings, the posters name at the end, but without date !
(I can add some more points there in the list, but then it will be a clear one, and I will be in trouble ) .
