Well, keep the index habit going strong! g

I have to admit that I do not download all of the bodies of your pictures.
Some subjects do not interest me, so much.

But, that said, I do download the index, and will often find a picture or
two (from subjects that I do not normally find interesting) that I want to
check out more closely.


Which is precisely the idea behind the index - you can pick and choose what
you want. I concur that not all of Mitchell's posts interest me either, but
checking the indexes is an easy way of finding out what has been posted;
something that cannot be done with a .rar file.

I've been coming to this group since early 1999 and have seen all sorts of
things, including rants; abuse; spam; floods and even some very disgusting
images (one guy from what was Yugoslavia was posting images from the actual
server - they were images purported to be those of dead soldiers and pilots;
and another was an image of a man who had been litterally blown inside out
by the rupture of a high-pressure aircraft tire). Nothing surprises me
anymore, but some things still annoy the living .... heck .... out of me.
