Welcome to a great forum. I'm one of the ones that the moderators or admins of MOC will occasionally pull a post of mine because it is "off topic." You know what? They are correct and I generally thank them for pointing it out to me.
I think, over time, that you will decide that this is a good forum with a great bunch of people. Some times the words may seem harsh, but it is because we cannot see in the written word the smile behind the writer. So I have learned to add
to my posts so y'all can see the smile.
Welcome! No question is a dumb question, but I can sometimes give dumb answers.
Edited: Aw shucks! Did I mention my son is a lawyer also? I hope no one holds that against me!
