If details are posted and there's a consensus that it's not really relevant, then it's already given "angry people" or whatever you call those who rant, something more to rant about. So, how do you find a balance with something like this? You have a very valid point and I understand. But in my opinion when the forum is far enough along that they know to ask the question then they should get an honest answer or the alternative is to say that they cannot talk about this know for some specific reason, even if it is to say because we don’t think it helps Maura or we think it would cause unnecessary embarrassment. What you never, never, ever do is lie about it. Bill

White Wash wrote: Thanks it required taking time off from my job and a lot of work that of which I simply refuse to apply to a forum format since there are those who are simply evil so why waste time and effort on peanut judging! We must have different Disney movies the Snow White I remember certainly had a different personally than yours. <quoted text> That's why we have editors in the first place....so we don't have to deal with that kind of stuff ourselves. I rarely spell-check emails, and forget about forum posts. You should see some of the rough drafts I get from students.

If Fred Murray wants OUR help, then he can tell US what HE knows. The trouble with that is that you have already assumed that there is something that Fred knows that he HASN'T shared.

Well I for one will say it wasn't a warm and fuzzy place to share! And yes I personally had sent things to family seach information,articles,ect and for those who want to see the thanks for that you can read Fred blasting me on the Hanson Express. But this is about Maura.

Ask Ben Franklyne -- I think this is something he'd know! Meanwhile, I'll try a few experiments! Quij

ScooterD wrote: <quoted text> Snowy, Firecat or White Wash - I'm working on bookmarking any articles written re: Maura - directly from the paper not pasted in the forum. Could one of you guys tell me which paper it was written in AND the date it was published in the paper? Thanks so much! It's in the Journal Opinion. I cannot access the archives without a subscription. Betcha White Wash has a copy of it around, though, dateline and all.(I have multiple copies of everything I've ever published, so that's not a jibe by any means, WW)

What you never, never, ever do is lie about it. Bill Yes, I see now that it wasn't just that stuff has been withheld all these years... but the repeated statements that Maura being absolutely perfect, not a problem in the world... the DENIAL was a lie. Is this what you mean? I believe there are many, many more lies such as who was in her dorm room first after she disappeared, the lie that she actually LIVED in that dorm room (just speculation), what was found there, the condition of the Saturn before Saturday 2/7/04, and on and on.

Good thing it won't be a forum where there are factions and people who are more equal than others and everyone can express their opinions without fear of being censored........

WHISTON wrote: hi,lauriesgone and all.There is something in the topix rules about posting information to direct peole to another web site .They dont' like it.Tkae care philip OH MY GOD. How many times have we posted links to other sites and no one cares? Now that it's one where certain people want to talk about Maura in a way that other people don't necessarily agree with, it's suddenly against the rules? No wonder you don't have to worry about whether or not you'll be free to express your opinions on the site. You've simply not given the information to anyone you think might disagree with you.

I am going to leave one last message about the phone and then call it good. If you dont answer your phone - a feature called no-answer transfer goes into effect -after 3 rings the call forwards to voicemail which sits on a server on premise of the wireless carrier. That call is not handled by the towers and NEVER shows up on a bill. Call yourself right now - dont answer and logon to view your calls online- look what you will see ? It wont be there the tower never handed off the call. That call is actually handled by the telco/landline carrier and goes through the central office. This is an area that I am an expert on.. This is what I have been doing since 1990. Boring to some but I do know telcom.

Snowy White wrote: yankee ~ at your post #10475 "It has never made sense to me why she would leave a prestigious institution like West Point, and a prestigious career,(engineering, being a military officer) and go into nursing, of all things. Nursing, as much as many people in the field refuse to admit it, is nothing but a blue collar job.(However, that is not the topic of this thread so please don't make this a discussion related to nursing.) " ******** I tried to answer your original question here. Actually, I wasn't asking a question, the post was in reference to her having been asked to leave West Point, according to two posters now, and my opinion hasn't changed.
