Thanks for the VIP access Luv'emLong and the rest of the staff.  Darn cool of you.
    I found out something too.  When I first tried to read reviews VIP-style,  I couldn't do it.  Then I looked at the top of the home page and saw the log-in.  So I clicked on it and logged in and not only did it give me the three day access promotion,  I saw I had mail.  When I clicked on that I found about ten messages from '04 and '05.  Didn't even know about that.  A few from the old moderator The Answer, and a couple from other members,  who must have thought I blew them off.

Is this a temporary thing here with accessing our mail and Reviews? I could kinda understand the Review part of it, but I could never understand why one had to be a VIP member to access one's mail?

The two or three I got from The Answer,  who was succeeded of course by Love em Long,  were pretty good.  The best one was his explanation of why the staff chose not to put up a particular post I submitted.  
    The part that makes it funny and entertaining is that I remember it.  I had come home late one evening and I had consumed oh say,  a fair number of that Coors beer.  Then I posted a message to one of the girls that was posting here.  It wasn't anything bad or rude.  But it wasn't anything great because I was talking all sloppy and sentimental to her.  Which I meant,  but still.  Right there on the board.
    The next A.M. I'm going oh man did I write something I ain't crazy about last night and embarass somebody else too besides myself?  I didn't look at the discussion boards for a week.  Too scared to see what I did.  Finally after a week I checked it out and it never got put up.  I remember going whew! thank you! I was very happy.
    So I had to laugh today when I saw The Answer's message pertaining to that finally which has to be a year-and-a-half old anyway by now.  He basically says to me that you mean well and you're telling her something nice,  but you really want to mail this sort of thing and not plaster it up all over the boards.
    So The Answer helped me out back there in 2005 or so.
