Peabody: That triple post is quite interesting. I used to have this happen quite regularly. Someone would interupt me about the time I was going to post, and I'd forget and click a second time. For about the past 18 months my computer wouldn't let me do this. If I happened to click a second time, up on the screen would come. "ERROR you are entering something allready added to the forum", and it would not post the second time. I notice this has happened a couple of times in the past week. Marg. has been doing some upgrading to our system, thus not quite sure if she made some changes that affect this. I also noticed about the same time, I would never get a responce to any photo adds I replied to. I brought this to Kim's attention. She looked into it and discovered new screening equipment she had installed to screen out some scams and other undesirable material, was also screening out everyone using the same server as I. She was able to correct this in about 5 min. I know this as we were both online at same time, and at one point had overlaping e mails. Not completely sure she has that one cured, I realize not everyone will respond for various reasons, the jury is still out on that, only time will tell. Something else that happened in the past week. I used to have the option of clicking on a particular post, thus bringing up that one alone or I could click on expand and bring up entire thread. Now they are all treated as though I clicked on expand. I liked having the option, it saved a bit of time. I used both. I question whether these changes occured as a result of Marg.'s ungrading, Kim's upgrading or could be my server is making some changes. I kind of liken these computers to some of the first hay balers we saw back in the 1950s. You corrected the problem but were never quite sure HOW, WHAT, WHEN or WHERE you did it. Someday the experts will improve these computers so they compare with a 1970s balers. The cure on those was quick and efficient, and you knew what cured it. Then with all new technology, there is a time frame difference between experts and users learning all.
