Posting comments
Most topics will allow you to comment on them directly. We
will review all comments before making them public, just to be sure
they are appropriate for our "family publication." Topics with comments
will indicate the number of comments received so far, so you can quickly
see whether a topic allows comments and how many have been posted.

• If you want a personal reply, or you want others to email or call you, please include your contact information in your post; or, send an email to Jeff Scharn at ironbar66@hotmail.com granting permission to share provided contact information with others who inquire.


• Another option is to include your email and other contact information in your blogger PROFILE. Some people prefer to protect their main email address, and are reluctant to provide it on a public forum. For you, there's an easy solution. Simply set up a separate
  email address for this purpose using free email services, such as http://www.gmail.com/, http://www.yahoo.com/, and http://www.hotmail.com/.
