sorry if i spoke out of turn, Val.
i only lasted a short time before i had to post something.
dont recall now what it was, probly some 'inane' question as that is what i am
good at.
if he has been reading for a year+ then he might well have worked out that some
of us do know each other in real life.
some of us email privately to one another.
some of us are just idiots who speak out of turn on a regular basis.
some of us know more than the rest of us about quilting and life.
some of us............
easy to see that much had he been reading for a year+.
i did say i'd leave directory reply to someone else.
geez louise.
stranger in a strange land,

Before we make this person feel like some sort of intruding mutant on his
first post because he is a quiet observer let me say that I have a few
personal friends that have been reading this NG for longer than I have and
they have never posted. One of those people actually was the person who
steered me to this newsgroup. I am sure there are most likely many others that
prefer to silently observe and learn rather than actively participate. That is
their prerogative. The flip answers he has received to his intro and question
would be good reason not to post again in my book. I too have wondered about
the purpose of the directory. I think it's a legitimate question deserving a
legitimate answer rather than an "inane" retort. Admittedly tone of voice and
facial expression does not translate well into text and knowing how many of us
tease each other with great amusement because we *do* know each other may not
translate well for a newcomer on their first day in the trenches.
So does anyone have informative answers to SGM's questions about The
Directory? I'd be most interested in the answers as well.

My wife is a quilter and I have been watching this site for a year or so with
no posts but lots of reading and learning. However, I am a little confused
about the "Directory". Can someone explain the purpose of the Directory and
who might want/need to register?
Thanks from Newburgh, IN
