Bronwyn,
Re the posting of specific links I don't know of any 'how-to' on the OLO site as to the use of Forum features. That is why I have suggested in the past the idea of a 'page page' button, a sort of a page help button on every OLO page that lists and explains the available features. You post a link to a specific post this way: Click on the blue rectangular icon 'copy comment URL to clipboard' at the right-hand end of the row of icons displayed beneath the time and date stamp of every post. If you are using Internet Exploder as your browser, the left-click will achieve this result I believe. If you are using Firefox under Linux, you will need to right-click this icon, and then choose 'Copy link location' from the Firefox menu that displays. You then return to your text editor (or to the posting pane, if your habit is to live dangerously and risk losing your priceless trains of thought in cyberspace) and click 'paste' after having first, of course, positioned your cursor where you want the link to appear in your post. The link will then appear in your incipient literary gem. When you have completed your post in the posting pane, or copied it into it from your text editor, you then click 'preview'. Your post shortly displays pretty much as it will appear in the thread, minus the as yet unallocated timestamp. You can check that each link, which now displays in gamboge-coloured text as such in the preview pane, actually works properly before you finally post your masterpiece. Click 'post', and voila! You have posted, among other things, specific links. Viewers using a specific link, once the OLO site has located the relevant post, can scroll to anywhere else in that thread as in most cases the automatic search activates the 'All [pages]' display option. My apologies to examinator for this temporary technical diversion from the topic. We wouldn't want Bronwyn handicapped with respect to cyberspatial communication efficacy, would we now?

Dear Forrest
Thank you so much. That was very kind of you. Very thoughtful of you to spell it out in detail for me too, as you no doubt realise I need any techno stuff to be spelt out fairly clearly! Have saved your instructions and will bring them up as needed. Thank you again, dear Galahad! :) Posted by Bronwyn, Friday, 6 February 2009 7:16:42 PM

examinator,
I have been a little busy but I have a moment now. I hope you don’t mind if I ‘examine’ some of your ideas for more ‘control’ rules, of comments. I see you’re concerned about the nature/direction of some of the discussions. You raised the Australia Day - what does it mean to you? As I recall you opened that thread. Correct me if I am wrong – but didn’t you start with something like this= *Some rightly see it as invasion day * Ok let’s go back to your first post where you complain about others and say the following… ….. *Having a passionate opinion is one thing but addressing the topic/a fellow commenter as though as though our opinion is either holy writ/crusade or we have a right to be deliberately abrasive (insulting/rude) is more than PC it adversely affects all of us and the site.* Did it examinator, not ever occur to you that many might find found your opening comment on Australia day just that. = *deliberately abrasive (insulting/rude)* I take it your from an indigenous background by your comments. You should be proud. You may not have intended it to hurt or offend anybody but surely you must have been aware a large majority of us and (I am no different )respect their British family members and ancestors. I see Col and some of the others who didn’t agree with you have sort of been put on a short list. Do you concede some might consider your thread could be seen by some as a case of calling the kettle black Posted by People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming, Sunday, 8 February 2009 12:01:09 AM

How unsurprising that once the thread's run its useful course, the PALE&IF nutter/s stick their oar in. And getting it embarrassingly wrong again, as per usual.
Same old, same old. I think that the very worthy movement to end live animal exports would be well served if PALE&IF stopped discrediting it by association every time they post idiotically on OLO, and who knows elsewhere. Posted by CJ Morgan, Sunday, 8 February 2009 12:18:04 AM

Do not tell me when I may or may not post on OLO I have got nothing wrong- Here is the link the thread that was opened by examinator,+ his comments below= http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=2468&page=0 *Some rightly see it as invasion day and would prefer Jan 1st* I don’t think anybody can complain about the tone of others reply when they open a thread with something that’s bound to offend many. His thread offended me and many others. I was pointing out to examinator its very easy to offend and if he/she is going to get stuck into others they should have a unblemished history. , I was far more polite than yourself when trying to point out the counter argument to Examinator. To the best of my recollection yours was something close to the following- • Gosh Examinator, if that is all you have to comment upon, I would suggest you try *to grab one of those bottles of vodka you spoke of , run a bath (don’t worry about the water saving regulations), get in the bath, drink the vodka and slash your wrists Posted by Col Rouge, Now that is totally uncalled for and IMO should have been removed. It’s disgusting and shows a school girl type of nasty posting. That and crude comments should not be tolerated on ‘any’ forum. As for live exports I am pleased you support the phasing out of this cruel practise. Posted by People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming, Sunday, 8 February 2009 1:04:01 AM

I will desist from posting anything more on 9/11 after this post. From now on could I suggest you go to "9/11 Truth" at http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=2166&page=77
There, I will in coming days post material which, before long, should enable you to confidently arrive at the conclusion that the official US Government explanation is hogwash and not be swayed by any 9/11 'debunking' material you may subsequently encounter.
I commend the following videos from US High school physics teacher David Chandler:
"WTC7 in Freefall" at http://911blogger.com/node/17685
"'WTC7: NIST Admits Freefall' ...The Movie" at http://911blogger.com/node/18771
"WTC7: NIST Finally Admits Freefall (Part II)" at http://911blogger.com/node/18951
"WTC7: NIST Finally Admits Freefall (Part III)" at http://911blogger.com/node/18969
They are most useful, because you will see total confirmation that the 'collapse' of the third Tower WTC 7, which was not even struck be a plane, was a controlled demolition and not a collapse caused by fire.
"'WTC7: NIST Admits Freefall' ...The Movie" at http://911blogger.com/node/18771 is particularly enjoyable, because, in it, David Chandler (off camera) confronts the NIST bureaucrat who produced the cover up report.
It is fun watching the NIST brueaucrat going through all sorts of evasions and logical convulsions when confronted with the evidence that WTC 7 fell at free fall speed for the first 2.5 seconds - something they had, up until then, insisted was not the case.
