Hi Heather,

Welcome to usenet. I notice you're new to usenet newsgroups.

Next I'll say I'm not sure how Rich uses his time. But I suppose Rich
may be implying a distinction between misc.consumers.house (this
group), and alt.support.homebuyer (if it existed).

His advice may have been brusque, but it was accurate, and not out of
character for the group. After all this is USENET. And being
cantankerous and flaming newbies is all part of the fun for some
folks. The key is not to take anything too personally.


Hey... I'm not old enough to be cantankerous!

Uh, never mind.
