Beth, regardless of my previous post, I fully support your decision. I had enough military years to know that you never second guess the commander. Only he, and in this case, you have all the facts. You do a wonderful job, and lazy guys like me are very grateful.

Spam from Mayleen- Attn Beth

Does this mean she has been deleted from the board? To prevent further spams from her or even worse scams I certainly hope so.

Jack, I loved getting the support and knowledge I was getting from

the group by recieving posts directly to my email box, but felt the

group wasnt what I wanted in a group when I started recieving the

spam from Mayleen, therefore unsubcribing and decideing to read the

post on the web. I missed out on alot of support, because I just

would forget to come to the site, and partly because in a way I felt

let down. I now want to resubcribe knowing Beth as taken care

of it. You still have the option of being a part of Mayleens support,

Im sure there is a way to continue to interact with her. I for one am

happy with the outcome. SO WHERE DO I GO TO RESUBCRIBE SO THAT I CAN

READ THE POST VIA MY EMAIL BOX!

disease.

and say " Get out and never darken our door again! "
