Deleting Messages???

Why would anybody want to delete
their messages and responses. It leaves gaps in the history
for anybody new to the group or anybody just reading and catching up on what members have been discussing. Is it just me or does anybody else find it leaves gaps.And it doesn't feel right that you respond to a subject and the person who wrote it deletes it and leaves you believing that they have no interest in that subject.

MSN does not give us the option of editing our messages. So once they are posted we can not fix spelling errors or change sentences to better reflect what we meant. Most of the deleted messages are just ones that have been replaced. Some of the deleted messages were spam.

Hi Les & Maggie,            I still tend to think that we should not delete our messages.I'm not talking spam or garbage and I'm not talking about subjects that only get one or two responses. There are some really great subjects posted and they get many many responses and it just seems that you get reading and then you come to this hole in the responses.So far I'm the only one who thinks this way. I will agree to disagree but there has to be someone out there beside myself that see gaps.And the spelling is not a problem it comes with the Verdun slang.                     Take care,  Dannyb--

Hey Bear,            Hot is not the word, I would not want to be working outside in this weather. I'm dying just trying to pack a few boxes. No airconditioning here. I keep the fan blowing on me at all times and have been drinking many bottles of water.I can remember working construction in this weather and wish that I did not it was surely torture.Have a big glass of that spruce beer and relax in front of a fan. Please don't tell me you have aircond..... it hurts.                                                                                       Dannyb--

Hey Les,          What I want right now is moving day back to May 1st. I would rather move in snow than this humidity.I hope it cools down by Tuesday. I hate the packing and the mess that goes with it.The last time I moved my cat hid in the basement ceiling for hours until we got him out. This time I'll be ready with a cage early.Send me some of that coastal breeze please.  Dannyb--

HEY- DANNYB   I AGREE WITH YOU FOR SURE, LOTS OF PEOPLE READ THIS GOSSIP, YET THEY HAVE THE FEAR, TO WRITE BACK, FEAR IS EVIL STUFF, EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT-,EXAMPLE- 1 PERSON CAN REPAIR A CAR, YET MYSELF I DON'T EVEN KNOW WERE TO START, BUT I KNOW HOW TO BUILD A HOUSE. WE ARE ALL IMPORTANT TO BUILD THIS WORLD?? SOME ONE MAY BE VERY SICK IN A HOSPITAL BED, EXCITED EVERYDAY TO READ SOME STUFF NOW, OR BEFORE, BUT THEN FEAR KICKS IN. YOU CAN GO TO A LIBRARY, AND LOOK UP A NEWSPAPER 20 - 50 YEARS BACK NO PROBLEM. IN TIME MANY VERDUNERS WILL JUMP IN AS LONG AS THIS SITE IS ACTIVE EVERY DAY???

My 2 cents..............don't delete messages   It can deprive a new person from experiencing a memory jolt or hearing an old name or knowing some one knows the whereabouts of some one etc.   Sides, this place has plenty of memory.   Speaking of memory jolts.....................   We called the linoleum floor covering oil cloth, remember ??

    IN BUSINESS I LEARNED THAT THE MOST HARDEST THING TO DO IS TO PLEASE EVERYONE?? YOU NEED THE OPEN DOOR, IF YOU CLOSE THE DOOR TO THE PUBLIC AND ONLY THE CHOSEN FEW YOU ARE OUT OF BUSINESS, YOU WILL HAVE THE SMALL CLIENTILE, LATER THEY WILL JUST FIND OTHER PLACES TO GO AND THE SITE WILL DRIFT AWAY IN TIME. THE WISE MEN GOT IT GOING FOR SURE, STEVE.C. THEN DANNYB  PUT MORE GAS IN THE FIRE ??? GREAT CHIT CHAT, AND WISHING FOR MORE TO GET IN, NOT JUST THE FEW OF US DOING IT ALL THE TIME?? THE MANAGERS, INVESTED TIME, HARD WORK TO MAKE THIS SITE WORK, TO GIVE US THIS GREAT VERDUN SITE. IT'S UP TO THE MANAGERS TO MAKE THE RULES,AND I WILL RESPECT THERE DECISION.

Hey Bear,               I totally agree that the managers have the final say. All we are doing is giving our opinion.And like any opinion there will be people that agree with you and people who will not. This is a great group and it will become even better as the word spreads to other people.As far as groups go this is the only one that I have ever seen that got my interest.I can thank alan archi. for that, he and I were very good friends and lost touch with each other about 27 or 28 years ago and he contacted me through classmates earlier this year.And since I came on connections I have been in contact with other people from my past like LesF,Harley,bettyloo,AnnM,and yourself Bear, and I don't know if I would have bothered if I had to apply.This site is about people with connections to verdun and surrounding area.Lets keep it easy and uncomplicated and make connections.  Dannyb--

Hi Danny,



I agree completely! By the way, I think I might head to Montreal in a couple of weeks. My "weekends" are midweek so it will be a solo run this time. Let me know your new address & phone. I'll be in touch and lets plan on Magnans or something! If you have some free time, get in touch with Tony & Spiro and I'll have my pepper steak!
