Patti, are you out there?

 She will see if she can find contact info for Patti when she returns at the end of the week.

 and have been out of sorts for a while, with a lot of pain, but I’m back now!  Thanks to all who posted their concern!  I was sort of disgusted with the show for a while there, but my interest is peaking again.  I’m waiting to see what Carlotti brings to the writing table and to the characters of the show we all love.  Certainly relieved that we are seeing, finally, the end of Higley’s writing.  I’ll definitely be posting more often.  Thanks again for caring!

Patti, I’m so glad you’re back. Sorry about your knee, though.  

 Hi Patti,

I’m not a regular poster but I’ve checked this forum everyday for the last 10 years, so I, like many others, was very concerned when you "disappeared".

Now that you’re back with us, I was wondering if there couldn’t be a way for us to leave our email addresses somewhere where someone from the board might be able to pick them up should we want to get in touch.

Most people will probably want to separate "real" and "online" life, so I don’t know if it’s really gonna work, but considering the fright of the last couple of weeks, maybe some will be keen? 

And JennM seems to be very much away from this board, so she’s probably not the solution here (even if we are all very grateful for her keeping the forum open all these years). Has anyone got another idea? Is it even worth worrying about?

From cold rainy Cape Town, wishing you all US ladies a wonderful summer.

A Facebook page for the group. We wouldn’t discuss Days there, just be members of a group so that it’s easier to find each other. When Nora was alive, I friended her on Facebook and I was able to keep the group informed about her health issues. That might help for our group. 

 Facebook may not be the way to go.  It gets hacked too much and I have known people who have received some serious cyber-abuse on Facebook where up until pretty recently nothing was done about it.  I have a Facebook page, but I very seldom post to it.  Also, way too many political posters, and they can also get pretty raw and abusive with their political preferences and attack rather than discuss people who disagree with them.  I would rather see if Jen could set us up with something right here on this board, where we could not only post our concerns, likes and dislikes about the show, but where we could have a personal profile page where we can list our personal information, but no one could get into it unless they were a member.  Something along those lines would be helpful.  I just don’t know if I would want my personal info made public to any Tom, Dick or Jane who would be able to access it.  Too many social media goofballs out there simply looking to cause trouble for someone.  JMO!
