Guest guest Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Hey Group - I vote we boycott none-coconut oil postings! Don't read them, don't forward them, don't encourage them. I really appreciate all the knowledge shared by this group regarding coconut oil but I hate sifting through the rest of the postings... If you could see my inbox you would understand when I beg you: please keep the postings to information about coconut oil only. I signed up to this group for that reason. Thank you!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Janet You do not speak for me! I for one enjoy and learn from OT subjects on this informed and diversified group. My interests are not entirely limited coconut oil - I've been here long enough to know everything I will ever need to know on that subject. Just click your delete button if you don't think some topics are interesting enough for you. /C. 2011/7/19 Janet Michel <janetamichel@...> > Hey Group - I vote we boycott none-coconut oil postings!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Actually I would suggest that you find a group that likes diversity and information sharing -- there are plenty out there and you are missing out on some great stuff if you like that kind of thing. Every blog/forum has it's topic and that's why people choose to join it. There is nothing in the forum description that says this will be a political rally site -- can get that elsewhere if I am interested. If there is too much junk cluttering up the blog that has nothing to do with the topic, then why subscribe?

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Just consider them an opportunity to hone your coping skills. Explore your email program beyond its default settings and discover the joys of filtering, the disadvantages of digest compared to individual email, and the use of folders. IOW, people do what they do... deal with it. Chuck I got a chain letter by fax. It's very simple. You just fax a dollar bill to everybody on the list.

The List Description does NOT limit discussions to only coconut oil related topics, it specifically includes other topics (that's the 'open' part of the list name)... It doesn't even specifically exclude political topics, which I think should be allowed as they relate to natural health (not that some of the previous ones I participated in did much)...

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 THIS goroup likes diversity and information sharing....I joined this particular group in about 2003 BECAUSE it is an open forum that has specialists in fatty acids and coconut oil. We have had posts from Enig, one of the world's foremost bench researchers in fatty acids, including fatty acids that are not in coocnut oil but are in other food. We have also had posts from people who are using coconut oil and other supplements. It would be stupid to curtail a useful part of our conversation IMO; the body doesn't see wellness as a single food or supplement and neither should we. all good, Duncan > > > ** > > > > > > Janet > > > > You do not speak for me!
