Karen I did read your post and understand that you may end up repeating yourself BUT you asked for relies to your question. I just think its proper to reply to all OR make a genreral reply with NO NAMES CHECKED...By doing that you will avoid hurt feelings and that pesky repeating replies for YOU also. I have seen people post and add the previous posters names to 4 out of 5 replies and not reply or acknowledge the 1 poster as if they had not taken the same time the others did and that is rude *in my opinion*. I imagine if I were that person I would not like that..Think how you would feel if everyone from tomorrow on did not acknowledge your posts to them? Even when you change the subject line to get their attention? Face it, it would be hurtful. I make a point myself to answer all or wait and make a general statement to all NO NAMES CHECKED if I don't want to reply to all. Your a smart lady you can reword the same old same old OR not check names. I do not start many threads but if I did..I think I would avoid checking names to avoid this issue..Hope this helps.
