Steve, I agree with George. Many times I think I am talking into
the great outer space, no echoes back. Months later I hear someone
incorporated a suggestion I had mentioned. People are taking notes.
Remember what is practiced today is changing and it may not be tomorrow.
When some one suggest a new approach, it makes people think. Sometimes
my gun goes off before I get it out of the holster and miss the target
all together and I get I got yous back. It is good, it means that
someone is paying attention.
I enjoy getting all the wealth of info from many parts of the
ball we live in.
Have great day,
Ramon

Speaking as one who has stomped a few toes on rare occasion:
Don't sweat it. The "gurus" on any email forum get that way by speaking
out _on the forum_ and defending their answers. A lot of people will
use your information without returning a thanks if you email them
directly, but if you respond on the forum you may start a discussion
about your answer that may lead to other items. Or nobody may answer.
That's part of an online world, some people won't be polite and
acknowledge you, some will.
Sometimes you feel you are talking to a brick wall...
And I disagree with you, us designers are at the bottom of the pole,
that's why we work in the dark :)

Let"s face it Valerie; fabricators are at or near the bottom of the food
chain. I have bitten the proverbial lip on this subject as long as I
can. I emailed several people privately, before I signed up, about
fabrication related questions.
I sent at least 20 with answers which I believed to be accurate. I
received one response back. I continued to read the technet forums and,
when I saw something asked which I thought I could answer, I would
e-mail the individual with an answer. I thought if I signed up for
Technet I would at least get responses and opinions about my answers.
Well, that was my first mistake. I should have kept on the sidelines and
not have offered any input in a general forum. I learned one valuable
lesson: A newbie should never offer an opinion differing from the
tenured professionals on any forum. The good ole boys have all the right
answers anyway.
