> M,
> I guess that I do not know what you mean by beating a dead horse. Could you clarify that, for I am not real familiar with that expression as to what it could mean.
> Lou***It means that if you beat a horse to keep it going it'll eventually die. Then if you keep beating on it when its dead it does no good cuz its dead. Its not gonna go no more.
So it means that you fighting a fight you can't win.
This site is owned by Bob. And you can try and get your point across, but after a time, there's nothing more you can do.
If Bob doesn't want to change something, then there is nothing you can do but walk away.
This is Bobs site.
Took me awhile to figger that and decide I could live with it for now. Even if I don't agree with some of Bobs opinions. I just try not to let myself get sucked into it, and just think of how I enjoy my babblefriends and try and follow the rules that exist, even if I think some of them are silly. They are the rules of this site, Bobs site.
So there you have it. Kinda sucks, but so does lotsa stuff.
