What's up with this forum? I know there are plenty of MA

[seaglass]

residents on DU - why are there just news articles and no discussion?

1. I guess we just like to see what everyone else is bellyaching

about! You do have a valid question. There is just such a wealth of information here that I guess most of us spend our time reading everyone else's posts.

2. I don't feel compelled to post an opinion on every single issue nt

4. Either do I - it just seems the news article to discussion ratio is

a little off in this forum. :-)

Better than the morning paper.

6. I'm not the only one here with ten good fingers. It would be nice to hear from someone else.& thanks

7. Yes IanDB1, my post wasn't meant as a slam on you at all just

wondering why there wasn't much discussion. Thanks for keeping this forum alive.

8. I get most of my MA news from reading your posts.

I may not comment, but I always learn from you. Keep up the good work. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

9. I've read and voiced my opinion

in topics here, especially during the elections.
I'm sure I will again too! I have made attempts
to post articles but Ian always beats me to it! ;)
He's fast! I'm not always in this forum though.
I cruise all over DU and other websites, as well
as my own messageboard discussions/postings.

Nice to meet you, HopeLives! Nice name!

Where in MA do you live?

I'm in the southwest 'burbs, near RI, freezing my ass off!.

11. Hi Breeze. I live in Middlesex County - right over the border

from NH. I don't spend much time here but I did hang out a bit during the election and was driven crazy by that young woman who couldn't decide from one minute to the next whether she was going to vote Democrat or not - is she still here?

I did pop in because I thought there would be some discussion of Deval's faux pas and was surprised when there wasn't.

:hi:

I also read quite a bit from here but I don't comment a lot or start many threads here.
