Help me to understand the original post.
This group is not dead due to lack of posting. It is dead because
"something went wrong" or "due to boredom"?
If that be the case, then this dead group is alive and well with no bored
posts? But we have no good post either cause there are no posters.
So, if I think correctly, this group is a healthy, happy, empty group?
MMmmmmmmmm??? Let me think .... Mmmmmmmm???
Can some person post Shadetree's photos or should I cross-post this to
Y&B?
TIA!
