ha...BillG:<br />This isn't my job, and in any case I<br />have a personal rule to not argue with more than one blogger a day. And how many times you or anyone else posts is really none of my business. I don't make the rules and I make no effort to enforce them. But here is my take on the issue. <br />No, it is not a "huge problem". It isn't "the law" and no<br />one is going to come to your house and drag you away for overposting. What it is - it's a rule, arbitrarily established by the person who maintains the blog. Obeying it, at least most of the time, is simply a matter of respect for her. I think it's clear that respect for her is nearly universal among the people who post here, both regulars and occasional posters (with the possible exception of anons who hide and insult others. <br />So I would suggest to you that no<br />matter how profound that 6th comment is going to be, it would in most cases be best to forego<br />it. Tomorrow is only a few hours away. I am in<br />no way chastising you, so please don't take offense.<br />Just gentle advice. <br />Four for me, and unless there's a hot tub in my future, I'm<br />done.windhoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09185847697518005172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5995532066584316410.post-13292088428905383172010-01-05T20:49:49.018-06:002010-01-05T20:49:49.018-06:00Robin, is that you in the picture??

I didn't know that was a rule, or if I did, I subsequently forgot (CRS, don't you know.) I want to follow the guidelines because this is such a good blog with high-quality people and hosted by C.C. doing an excellent job. However, a few points.<br /><br />I vaguely remember several times since I have been around that a few people made lots of clever little posts and cute responses back and forth. It seemed like more than five to me (though I wasn't counting) and nobody said anything.<br /><br />If I have several things I want to respond to, I can post several times or make one long post. I can't see much of a difference.<br /><br />Somebody (Dennis?) made the point that all the posts end up in C.C.'s inbox and it can get overwhelming. I understand that but I'm guessing that most of us, like me, read all of the posts anyway. <br /><br />Anyway, I will try to be better about following that guideline but I don't see it as a huge problem if somebody oversteps once in a while.Bill G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04142837879175561312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5995532066584316410.post-46496776993712929472010-01-05T20:23:37.204-06:002010-01-05T20:23:37.204-06:00Last one out turn out the lights.
