I'm also sorry if I offended you in any way since that wasn't my intent. I merely meant that the amount of your engagement with individual posters here is limited. It's been that way for as long as I can remember and there's no reason to think it's going to change. If one wants more of a personal relationship I think one is more likely to find that with other posters. Therefore that's more gratifying. And less complicated without the power imbalance.
Anyway it's worked for me and I'm grateful to you for providing a place it could happen in.
Jane,
wondering if she's put her foot further in her mouth but too sleepy to care
