> Just thought you'd wanna know.I was intrigued by your choice of greetings to a roomful of potential new friends. :) Was the poofing a global descripion of your general style or a Babble specific one? On second thoughts, perhaps that ought to be a rhetorical question.
Welcome, welcome. If GG vouches for you, I'm sure you're a supportive and kind poster. Come in and have a seat. If you have any specific areas of interest, there are lots of other boards on this site, and tons of terrific posters, although not too many smilies I fear.
In hopes that you will feel comfortable posting here as well as there, because as Laurie says, it surely doesn't have to be an either/or proposition.

(P.S. You must realize that we aren't particularly used to seeing our own moderator, Dr. Bob, acting human, getting upset, or speaking out. Since that's what we're used to, it probably is something more of a shock to us than it would be to someone else to see a moderator doing that.)
