If people continue, I will put the list on Moderated status, which means I have to approval every message -- or not.

Thank you David. I tried, but people aren't listening.

Another reminder, when posting on a thread, please delete all messages underneath except for the one to which you are replying.

As for my part as moderator, I can't always watch the list. Last night I was at church. This morning I was at work teaching music. Last night I replied on the first message from Tony, asking you all to please not discuss politics here. A bunch of you just went right on doing that, which is why David had to send this message. And you continued even after David's message. PLEASE STOP!!

Blessings,

Linda
