What does Gransnet mean to you?

WB A very good analogy. The car designer uses an engine designed by someone else that essentially just produces a series of controlled explosions. These produce an in and out motion, which is then adapted to make a round and round motion, which itself is transmitted to the wheels. The power is also translated into the electricity that fires the ignition that starts off the explosions, works lights, displays things on the dahboard, and does all the other things that we take for granted.

the driver doesn't need to know much about it all, just how to use the magical machine to best advantage (and when to get someone else to fix it)

The deleted post were just plain nasty personal comments.

I too was reminded of a vanished poster who declared that she trusted no-one and saw conspiracies and danger everywhere, under more than one username.

I have met in RL some very nice friendly people who I originally "met" on GN and each month we meet for coffee and have been for 2 years now. We appeared to "click" and we do not stop chatting.

I do not understand why some are so vicious and rude.

I recall when someone did something really nasty involving phoenix she said that originated from north of the border. I wonder if that persona has existed for a long time.All speculation of course.
