How do you feel about threads being cross-posted between m.k and alt.childfree.bridgebuilding?
In article , lizzard woman
says... "Banty" wrote in message ... (And it's MS. Banty!) No, dear. That was in reference to the "Welcome Back, Kotter" TV show where one of the characters would bring in notes signed not with the usual "Mrs. First Last" (entire mother's name) but instead with "Mrs. (Character's name) mother which is funny because it was obviously forged by the character. Gotcha. "Mrs. Horschak's mother".. And aren't you a "Dr." anyway?????????? Only when other doctors are around :-) Banty |

How do you feel about threads being cross-posted between m.k and alt.childfree.bridgebuilding?
"lynn" wrote in message ... [My answer to the question in the subject line is, "I don't see the point, and I think it's prone to flamewars, so I'm against it." Given the possible topics as posted in the FAQ, I agree, I think topics will either be of no possible interested to parents (CF event, articles, or websites) or definite flamewar fodder. |

How do you feel about threads being cross-posted between m.k and alt.childfree.bridgebuilding?
"Naomi Pardue" wrote in message ... We are not hermits who revolve around our child, but I've grown up and my friends are still scouting for guys. Why does growing apart from friends necessarily mean that I don't have interests outside of my child? So it sounds like the main difference between you and your old friends isn't that you have kids and they don't, but that you are married and they are single. Nothing to do with the absence or presence of children. (And ... it's just me maybe, but I'd get bored pretty quickly with a group of friends who could find nothing more interesting to do/talk about than look for/discuss cute guys...) Well, now you see why we're growing apart. It was fun when we all had raging hormones, but mine are tamed now. I just don't find that kind of talk interesting. |

poll: How do you feel about threads being cross-posted between m.k and alt.childfree.bridgebuilding?

It would help in reviving a.c.b if we *cross-posted some threads to get things going.

We can put X-post in the subject line so they are easily avoided by *those who don't wish to read them. Are there any other suggestions about *how to clearly mark these? I pretty much killfile posts with *childfree* in the Newsgroup header, so, I don't care if you make the crossposts, I'm not going to read them. What's the point? Bridgebuilding? from where to where? If you want to build a bridge from misc.kids to alt.support.childfree, seems to me it makes sense to use the existing groups. If you want to build some other kind of bridge, well - what is it? -- hillary israeli vmd http://www.hillary.net "uber vaccae in quattuor partes divisum est." not-so-newly minted veterinarian-at-large |
