Duffy and Holly photos
"mlbriggs" wrote in message news I have never been able to access abpa and have given up trying. MLB I have a PictureTrail account, and someone suggested that I use that instead. I'm going to do that soon -- set an album for "recent pics" and then direct people there. I don't think anyone would have problems with that account. I will post links to some of my current PictureTrail albums under my signature so you can see if that gives you access.

I read text groups through news.individual.net, since they block more newsgroup spam than does my ISP, but I have to read binary newsgroups (i.e., groups that allow attachments), such as alt.binaries.pictures.animals, through my ISP's server, as news.individual.net doesn't carry binary newsgroups. -- John F.

MaryL wrote: I just posted 2 new photos of Duffy and Holly on alt.binaries.pictures.animals MaryL Mary, would you mind e-mailing them to me? I can't access them. Would love to see them. Sherry Yes, I'll be glad to. A troll is sending *massive* numbers of junk to that newsgroup, so I wasn't sure if people from this NG would be able to get through. Most of the recent posts to ABPA have been from "Wango"; while he or she keeps making disparaging remarks about cats, the posts do indeed contain pictures of animals, making them on-topic for APBA. If you are referring to some other troll, their messages are apparently being filtered by my ISP. -- John F. Eldredge -- PGP key available from http://pgp.mit.edu "Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all." -- Hypatia of Alexandria Yes, I was referring to Wango. Granted, this is not the typical troll and perhaps I should just have said "flood," but anyone who posts hundreds of photos in a single mailing is deliberately making it difficult to find anyone else's items. Many of the photos he posts are gorgeous -- but it's also difficult to tell which are his own. Still, I wouldn't find it such an annoyance if he would post a few a day instead of several hundred a day! Anyone without broadband probably can't access the NG at all. MaryL Hundreds? More like thousands. I haven't been able to get into abpa recently since I have to access it through biggulp.readfreenews.net. When I finally got into it this afternoon there were 9,626 new posts. After I deleted all of Wango's posts there were only 900+, and a lot of them were referencing the Wango posts. Wango needs to get a new hobby.

ARGH! Got there too late. Some idiot (wango-tango?) is "flooding" abpa and
your post got pushed off before I could see it. Is there a web site you could post to or email them to me? -- Hugs, CatNipped See all my masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ "MaryL" -OUT-THE-LITTER wrote in message news:gGQCf.62693$0G.59606@dukeread10...

He is a remarkable cat and can do almost anything a sighted can can do. There are even some contributors to this newsgroup who claim to be "Duffy's fan club" -- and he deserves it. He is charming, happy, active loving, everything positive that I can think to say. MaryL |

I am also going to set up a "recent pics" album in my PictureTrail account some time within the next few days. Then I can post and everyone should be able to access it. MaryL |
