Pam,
Did you actually post this or did it disappear while you were still writing. Happened to me just now, before I could psost this:?::?:

I fixed the problem by making another short post and it somehow reset the system and appeared. software issue I guess.

I just read the post you thought you lost. No wonder you were upset. BTW, I really like the way you make your point in that one.

I have suggested this before when the subject has come up. Write your posts using MS word, or whatever you use for your word processing program. That goes double for posts like pams. The software here, or anywhere, is not perfect, and things can get "lost".

I had most of it in text edit (Macīs version of notepad) but not all of it so it could have been recovered. what i thought was weirde was that it refistered byt didnīt appear. also on some longer threads i will get strange page numbers that when i click on them put you to a previous page, weird.

On the post, thanks. i am trying to make myself more clear so that i am not writing in such a way as to show emotion over substinance. I think it is much more effective. Many posts, I read, are done "on the fly" or in hurried time, and the writer is emotionally moved while writing so only a portion of their "point" comes out. One has to consider that when reading those posts.
