Hi Betty-- please don't take this "deleting" stuff too personally! There
are 1600+ souls on this list, and obviously not *everything* will be
pertinent to *everyone* ....we have different needs, are at different
stages of life with PD, care/don't care about advocacy issues, or eye
problems, or whatever--there are many folks who delete in self defense,as
they can't manage the high volume of mail, and others want serious stuff,
and delete jokes,banter,and messages directed to another individual...on
and on! It ius perhaps not so much a matter of thinking a particular post
is "not worth looking at", but rather prioritizing what one can handle.
And I know that sometimes I've had to delete a thread of posts which didn't
seem relevant to us at the time, and then by golly Peter asks just that
question!---Oh well, that's why we have the archives, right? So even if
we're deleted, we still exist virtually in the "great archive in the sky"
for which the web address is:
http://new.parkinsons.org.uk/index.htm
Stay with us, please Betty--
