Scroll, maybe.

But have you ever used the search feature and tried to go back through all the Lori posts?
No easy thing to do!

I agree, the search feature is the one thing on this forum that stinks. I have tried to find threads and it takes forever. I am in the keep on posting camp. My only complaint is that some are too dang long winded per post and I like to scan to see if an interest and if the poster is too long and tight it's hard to do on a 12 inch lap top. But I love the human element of this forum and have made friends here wheras other forums are too clinical and grow weary. There is a good reaqson this forum is growing as fast as it is. And if one truly needs advise, start a new thread and someone will come to their aid.

Lori, what will become of our get together cruise if you are not around to organise it. I mean we can't all be hose heads and you attend all natural and beautiful!

R&R,

Have I left??? Do you still see me here a lot? You didn't get rid of me that fast, did you? And I really like the cruise idea, actually, but I never got the impression (and I don't do impressions) that there was enough people to go ahead with this idea. I got the distinct feeling that there were SOME people that kept that thread alive, but not enough to even consider something like that.

WAF,

Knew I could rely on you! Welcome back.

Linda,

Nothing about having OSA is easy. I agree, the search function is a bit tough, but there are certain members, especially, on this site who have a talent (and I use that word for a reason) of supplying past links to threads that are spoken of in other threads at the mention of them. I don't know how they do it, but it's amazing when they do. There are also TINY tweaking features on the search function that may help, such as the choice of ascending or descending order and including the author's name, etc.
