dear oztules.
i understand what you are saying in this post.
but the replys you are getting look as if thay have missed the point you are trying
to make.
sum replys evan went to try and attack your thinking.
for a story to reach the front page i think it needs to have merit.
and bye putting a story on the front page it gives credit to the poster.
so if you want to read a interesting post .thats full of info about how
the poster made or built sumthing bye himself .
for the purpose of renewable energy .
and with pics if possible .
of course there are many other things that can go on the headlines.
as you said your post about cutting timber blades with a chainsaw never made it.
i dont know why not.
sure was interesting story with great pics.
as was the guy who couldent afford two steel discs at $100 each.
so he did it his way.
that story impressed me . as yours did.
thats why the front page is there for that type stuff .
unless you browse the recent activity. as you say things are gone.
sumtimes my post gets moved to mechanical.
and now my spelling is getting much better .
i find my post on the front page.
i enjoy how the dans share with a good story and great pics.
its hard work sorting the wheat from the chaff .
so methinks wheat is found on the front page.
as your trying to say.
i admire your work and love to read comments and posts from you.
ps thanks for the tip on how to get wire strait again.
its a ill wind that dos no good
