Hello everyone,
You may have noticed that I recently archived the Message Forum. For those of you who are new to the Message Forum, archiving is where all messages from a previous date are gathered up and stored in the GoatWorld Database - these messages can still be found if you use the "search" feature on GoatWorld. Say for example you are looking for information about pneumonia...simply type in pneumonia in the search form and you will see every post that contains the word.
The reason for this message is twofold - I am making sure that the Message Forum still works after I work on it, and to let everyone know that the Message Forum has become a very busy place. We are averaging 23 messages per day now! Thanks to all of you for the increase. And a big thank you to people such as Vicki, Kay, Marsha, Nat....the list goes on.
With this increase in messages, I plan to archive more often so as to keep the Message Forum operating quickly.I know that some of you are on limited time with the Internet so the faster a page loads, the better. And for those of you new to the Message Forum, please don't be afraid to ask questions and give your opinions and experience. This helps everyone, newcomer or seasoned professional alike. The only dumb question is the one left unasked.
Till next time, best regards,
Gary Pfalzbot
