Sometimes, "old" posters on here need to stop and realize that someone may have just signed up for TOTV and does not understand how to find out how everything works. As long as I've been on, I still have to look up the "how to's". If someone brings up a subject that has been discussed in the past, perhaps that person is not a part of the "past". Just redirect them to some of the original posts kindly and most likely they will find their answers.

All of us at some point will probably step on some toes; it happens. When it happens, just make every effort not to do so intentionally.

I still love what my daddy always said: "I never did see a board that didn't have two sides."
Well said, kindly reasoned, gently said. Just as usual.
