Crazy messages
Can I be the only one who receives crazy replies in forums or IM? I got one the other day that said nothing more than "I have no friends." I don't know who the sender is. In Most cases if I 'read between the lines' I can figure it out. I must have been a cop in a past life or maybe I've been lucky. This one has been a buster.
Just my two cents.

there's a way to tell who left the message...just ask a mod. 
in fact, a user can get in trouble for abusing that system. |

Thanks! I didn't know this. I don't know if it is abuse or a cry for help. I returned the message, but have had no response.

Hey Linicx, thanks for your central IL and Il river valley postings. I travel the area several times a year on business and your details are very accurate and insightful.

Thanks for the kind words. If you get a chance stop and see the Xmas lights in EP, or better yet, bring your family for a weekend. There are inside things to do like the museums in the area and the observatory at Peoria. It's a nice weekend getaway when you arean't working, too.
What I wish is that the folks - who comment about the flat boring farmland Interstate driving - would do is detour and see what the IRV has to offer in way of scenenry and history and things to do. |

I get a ton of these messages some are good some are not. I find them all very interesting though.

I don't get the messages you speak of, but the voices...now those are annoying. |
