    the CR band was playing on and on. donuts… latkes… and fermented plum juice – I don’t remember what else

    it’s was kinda like the CR version of woodstock – if you claim to remember it clearly… you weren’t there

    what if…

    a person has 2 screen names 1 with a male persona and 1 with a female persona. can s/he have a conversation in the CR between the two screen names? would it be maris ayin if IRL someone new the person behind 1 of the screen names and not that s/he was behind both names?

    you’re a good man Charlie Brown and your advice is right on target as usual.

    Another point – there are many people reading here that never post – so although you may trust those that you think you know on the boards – there may be stalkers trying to figure out who you are.

    Try this and see if it works. I set this up a quite some time ago. Sheet 1 = Mishnayos Herbst. sheet 2 = Mishnayos Extra. Use the extra tab if you want to learn Mishnayos for another person. Additional tabs may be entered as needed but please let me know when you do so. Please do not change the format of the spreadsheet.

    you will know who the mods are by sight (maybe by user name if you caught us when we slipped and posted under our user name thinking we were logged into our mod account)

    you will know who we are because:

    we (yes even retired mods) are the ones that do not have to wait online at the coffee bar (or any other bar)…

    the Hors d’oeuvres will be served to us first as will the main meal…

    we are allowed to stand by the mechitza to make sure that there is no inappropriate mingling…

    also… we or at least some of us have jerseys with our numbers. see who of the newbies can find that thread (maybe there will be a prize)…

    YW Moderator-72
    Participant

    I voted at Kakiat. my card and the card of Mrs. 72 were not in the book as it was for many other long term voters in the district. They found us in the auxiliary books and we voted.

    for all those that say it was us against them – the budget was voted down by a much larger vote than the candidate tally meaning that even the public school people realize something is wrong with a $200M budget for 7,500 public school kids and a few bones for the private School kids.

    Additionally people should not confuse the schooling that is paid for children with developmental disabilities as money going to the private school sector – these children have a right under the education laws to a public school education and should be calculated into the public school enrollment. Some go to public schools within ERCSD and others are transported to other districts that can best service the individual and still others go to private institutions – each child deserves the best service that they can receive.

    “Did you take a poll of ALL the posters?”

    OK Polls open:

    On the diabetes related threads – do the comments made by Health, the student of health sciences BUT clearly not a Doctor, generally upset you more than they help?

    This poll is open to all diabetics and non-diabetics (Posters and Mods) and not just the “girls” as health arrogantly and disparagingly refers to the esteemed posters and many of the diabetics that post here.

    for the record as a retired moderator I do not have edit rights.

    Health – you claimed to be a student of health sciences in a different thread. you have every right to post – but your negativity towards others in the diabetic world is not appreciated. You present yourself as an expert which means nothing as anyone can google john hopkins, mayo, webmd and other sources just as easily — or they can do something smart like follow the advice of their medical practitioner and set realistic goals and behavior modification programs based on their condition.

    I am sure that you’re a decent person – after all how many people give free first aid/cpr lessons, however, your opinions given as free advice is sometimes wrong and usually given in a negative way even when given in the authoritative tone in which you project yourself.

    one last point: your comments generally upset other posters more than they help.

    health – I think it is time that you state clearly your medical credentials – besides teaching FA/CPR. You seem to give a lot of advice as if you are an authority. Are you an Endo? a different type of Medical Doctor? an alternative practitioner? a student of health sciences (you know the tyoe the reads the mayoclinic and webmd sites and knows more than anyone)?

    Did you know that a diabetic with other conditions may be better off in the A1C 6.5 – 7 range than under 6?

    so Health… in which of those fields are you incompetent in?
