Tony, I don't read comment that are of RED type, Years ago after leaving MN, I did a short
period with, the post office, and was always told, while sorting, any thing in RED, was stamped
return to sender, with please re-address in black/blue, It is classed as angry, offensive, and rude.
I can point you at a number of forums, that delete any comment that is RED type. take care

Apart from the Mod's use of red type, which has been adequately explained, the only other regular user of red type is Tony in Cebu - angry, offensive, rude?..........nah - not even remotely.

I'll be good for the planet and go green , I worked in the food industry for a couple of decades , and knew the main Quality control man for the large group that I worked for , he tells a tale of address colours , red to him always seemed to contain a letter from an angry consumer , but he swore blind that Green script was bound to be from a raving lunatic

I did think brown , but might be taken as racist , I thought pink might be too girly , grey or khaki too military , yellow. Might be a health and safety alert . Multi coloured might be fun , but sod it I like a nice black too so Doc we will both settle for a nice black then

log out
Don't normally log out,but did just to she what changes you made Tony.
Yes quite impressive,and i hope that it may entice a lot more Visitors to join this site.
I think that perhaps the visitors need i wee bit more entry into some of the general category of Forums,this wouldgive them at least something to take in and show then what there is to offer,now I don't mean all Forums,possibly three or four ?????
Your thoughts Gentlemen
Cheers
