That's amazing. Just about everything is more expensive in Australia than in the US and, probably, Europe. But our kWh price is quite a bit lower than yours. Solar panels all the way in Hawaii. |

I don't think I'll be catching and cooking any crabs. The very idea! I'd rather watch them scurrying on the rocks - very amusing! I once caught a can of crab. My wife thought it was cat food and fed it to those bastards! Looks like no crab cakes for me! |

"Aside from all that" - LOL. No I did not know. Not sure I'd use it anyway. I think my way was better because it supplied two answers - one that google groups was working because I accessed your group through google, meaning things were probably just delayed on my group. And that was the case as my posts did show up an hour or so later. By the way I am not in a rush. I don't care about the hour. When I first started using google for the groups the average wait time for a post to show was 9 hours. I did not mind it a bit. But when your posts usually show up right away and then suddenly they don't it makes you wonder if maybe whatever you type next could be lost to the ether. So I decided to use your group - my group too, just not as steadily - as a test. I mean, "aside from all that", this has been a test. Repeat: THIS HAS BEEN A TEST. Thanks. From now on I'm going to call you TFAT (pronounced Tee-Fat and standing for "Thanks For All That." |

I am very impatient and distrustful of internet instructions on anything. Very little in between, very technical. Maybe it's just me but I don't like it. Now to get my point across using a real life example I will use the Sudoko puzzle out of the newspaper. I do them now and then. Right next to the puzzle is a message saying "For help with tips on how to solve Sudoko please visit......www.dot.whateversudoko. I have two reasons I never visited that site. First I'd rather learn (or not) on my own how to make the puzzle easier. Of course if the puzzles become too easy you're going to have trouble finding challenging puzzles and will have to pay extra money for extra tough puzzles. Reason number two I don't click into their suggested learning tips is I'm afraid the tips may be harder to understand than the puzzles themselves. So whenever possible I will use a more direct Paul Anka style "my way" method of my playing detective. But I appreciate all the suggestions. I just wanted to see if my post took here. It did. My Q and A was over at that moment. But of course - aside from all that - I also enjoy posting here now and then. |

I'm in the middle on this one. I was in a very active standup comedy group that was at it's peak but was splitting into factions around the time I first went there. I enjoyed posting there. But the ones who were there first thought the group should be only about getting gigs and so forth - the business end of it. Jokes were frowned upon (unless they came from the main cliche). There were trolls. Bad ones too. But sometimes even they were funny and were easy to ignore. Also, the title of 'troll' was passed around too much. Anyone new to the group was viewed as a troll unless they kissed the right asses. Anyway, the original guys finally managed to start a moderated group. I could get into the group but could not post. I did not care. Not a bit. But I did keep an eye on their progress. Within a few months the group died away. The original group, where I remained with a few others lasted longer but with members dropping out over time. This was an experience. The group was at it's peak when I arrived. A bit of conflict made it possible, I think. I'm not suggested conflict as a remedy for anything, like doing it on purpose - like, 'Hey man, this place could use a little conflict." I understand how you feel, sort of like looking for regular ice-cream and all you can find is sugarless and fat free crap. The real stuff is there but it's buried away. Bad example maybe. Anyway, I suppose it's all relative and for you this is really bad right now - but from what I saw in the few groups I've been to this place is pretty well run. Also, as I'm sure you know, some of those who complain loudest about conflict posts or off topic posts are usually the first to respond into them. I am not putting the verdict on you or anyone exclusively, just supposing even those who love talking about food enjoy a good diversion now and then. I like the way threads turn into other stuff. Now if someone goes down top to bottom purposely and takes over the whole board just to be a pig, of course that is a different story. But natural diversions within posts is great. If I have a question about food, or a suggestion of my own, this is the place I come to. |

At first I read it as 'flip' not 'rip' and thought you were taking about pancakes or fritters or something. Then I noticed rip and thought, "Now this guy is talking my language." Yes, I can talk about farts all day long, the many different styles of sound and most importantly smell. There is indeed a connection to food. Do farts cook in the traditional oven or stovetop method? Not exactly. But rest assured on their way out their are boiling in all sorts of ways, if not on sheer desire to be released at last -urgent, hot, bubbling - like prisoners scaling the wall in unison or slaves freed at last from their chains. I agree with your comment - so far in this group - I see it as a decently run place and yes it is easy enough to avoid controversy. |

Bread would be nice but I'm not going to eat bread for a while because the rest of the family is on a restricted diet. All they eat is protein bars/drinks and fish and salad. Ha ha, that's so funny. |
