[P_A_I]

Ah, I understand your reference now ... I wasinvolved on that thread for several days, I don't think I abandoned it.
I stopped responding to the thread and, in fact, looking at the thread because I felt I made all the pertinent points I wanted to make, nothing new was being said, and time no longer permitted me to keep up.

You made one post to that thread, at #31.. -- And made no responses.

[Find #31, click on 'view replies' and feel free to answer them.]

Did I? Must have been a message board on another site I was thinking about, then.
In any case, I don't see much point in going back to a debate that is amost a year old. The thread has 500 replies for goodness sake.

If you bothered to click, you would see that you have only 6 replies.

The biggest problem is that this site doesn't email you when you get replies (does it?)

It does, but not with an Email, -- it's a "pings" box highlite at the top of your screen. Takes you to the 'Your Comments' page, w/replies.

and not being a regular, I probably just never came back.

Well, now you're back. Don't be shy just because a year has past..

"If you bothered to click, you would see that you have only 6 replies."

I did click - and again, since all of the replies to me are nearly a year old, I don't see a point in replying back now.

"It does, but not with an Email, -- it's a "pings" box highlite at the top of your screen. Takes you to the 'Your Comments' page, w/replies."

Therein lies the problem - I am not a regular so I did not see the pings.

"Well, now you're back. Don't be shy just because a year has past.."

So far I haven't been ... but I won't be hanging around for the long haul - I have my own site to run and I already wish I had more time for it. :)
