[pianotech] Dual Lists: was Gen-u-whine Steinway parts:OT RANT

[David Boyce]

I can't warm to the new list either. "Crawl through the labyrinth" is a 
good way to put it, Ed.

I get both lists as Digests into my Mozilla Thunderbird Inbox, and they 
automatically go into different folders. It is as easy for me to look at 
the one as the other. Yet I just don't feel drawn to the new list, but 
sill feel pleased and a little excited when the old list pops into its 
Inbox folder - even though i've been subscribed to it since 1996.

I tried posting to the new list again the other night and wanted to send 
a file (the post was on the same QR Code topic that I posted here), and 
I uploaded the image of the QR Code. it didn't display in the body of 
the posting, though the link is there. But Paul Brown replied, with his 
own QR Code, which did display in the body of the post.  I clicked on 
the link to mine just now, and of course it wants to make me sign in to 
ptg to see it.

What I did diferent from Paul, I don't know.  And really, I haven't the 
energy at the moment to find out.

Best regards,

David.
