[AT] Remembering

[David Bruce]

I have been a FB user for a couple years now. I started as a way to keep 
up with far flung family and friends. I have used computers with Win XP, 
Win 7 (I refuse to use Win 8) and Ubuntu Linux. That doesn't seem to 
increased my malware loading.

Of late I have been functioning as an ADMIN (read as an adult) for one 
FB group. If things get off track I can use my "power of God" and remove 
the offending comments (or the user as well).

Like many things in life there is both good and bad. I try to avoid the bad.
