Sky, I am totally lazy and hate skimming up to the top of the page and posting seperate posts for each person that I want want to talk to so I usually just click the reply button on the last post. I look at it like we are all sitting around a table talking to one another. BUT I have found that not everyone feels this way and confusion and hurt feelings arise. So as a happy medium I just type out the names of the person or people that I am making comment too in the text or at the beginning of the post. That way I can be lazy and people know who I am responding too. I also am too lazy to figure out the nifty little things that so many people do with icons and such. But I believe what DE says the most important things is to be nice to each other and the other ettiquette stuff is not so important.

<font color=green>But the implicit and usually unconscious bargain we make with ourselves is that, yes, we want to be healed, we want to be made whole, we're willing to go some distance, but we're not willing to question the fundamental assumptions upon which our way of life has been built, both personally and societally.--Bill Plotkin, Soulcraft
