> I would put Howard in the "Originator" category. It seems like the majority of his posts are original posts. They might not all be major thread-starters, but they're all his. I know he responds a lot too, but his responses are often quick one-liners, designed to get a laugh. I think Howard is more in his element when it comes to posting original material. Howard, if you disagree with me on this, I'd like to hear your perspective on it!

I may have to think about that. I think I respond more than I post original stuff, but some of my responses are way off the subject. While ago I posted a response in a thread about money and another one about Boston. They both were a little silly. No make that a big silly, but they were my own original thoughts. Yet they were in somebody else's thread. Sometimes I write stuff for my own entertainment, knowing that nobody in their right mind is going to read it, or even if they read it, they aren't going to want to comment.
Other times, I just need to vent, and Rinkworks gets stuff that at one time would have landed in the wastebasket. That's why it never bothers me if Sam zaps some of it. I depend on his good taste (and strong stomach).
