Comments for Confessions of December http://www.debslife.com A woman, her thoughts, her words, her art, her camera... her life Sun, 05 Jul 2009 00:03:18 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 Comment on The New Facebook Format by Rick_in_Boca http://www.debslife.com/2009/03/14/the-new-facebook-format/#comment-307 Rick_in_Boca Mon, 27 Apr 2009 18:26:47 +0000 http://www.debslife.com/2009/03/14/the-new-facebook-format/#comment-307 I knew I didn't like it, but I didn't know why until you wrote up your analysis. I know they wanted to do away with "groups" but they are still there... just almost impossible to find. I need to go to my own profile, click info, and then scroll down to my groups. "Groups" is not one of the options for customizing my page. I knew I didn’t like it, but I didn’t know why until you wrote up your analysis.

I really think you said it all in a much better way than I could. I am so with you! I really think you said it all in a much better way than I could.

At first, I thought the changes were only on the home page-and other than the annoying "hid an Easter Egg" dumping that you talked about didn't really mind the changes. But I'm starting to see more of the Profile changes and information scrambling. It is much more frustrating! I totally agree Deb!

These just make them run from scary ball of fire. I saw the authorities use these to great effect in Alaska.

When you get your plans put together more, you can probably get someone from one of the NCTA chapters to help you spot your car, even with dogs. Let me know. I need to bookmark your blog. I forgot to last time I was here. Yes, that’s a park policy.

I can see both sides, but my personal opinion is against bikes, based on unpleasant experiences while hiking in Yankee Springs and Fort Custer.

I was going on our experience in Pictured Rocks, but perhaps that was a park policy more than a trail policy. Thanks for the info! Hey that’s great about dogs!

Pictured Rocks in the UP, Copper Falls SP in Wisconsin, and the Fort Custer National Cemetery in Battle Creek are closed to dogs... maybe another place or two. Not sure where you got your info.

Same deal- the land owner gets to choose. So call the MNF to get the exact rules. I know they don't allow anything to be buried, but I think it's ok to place them. Again, though, don't take my word for it. Oh, and PS about geocaching, letterboxing. Same deal- the land owner gets to choose. So call the MNF to get the exact rules.

The NCTA is adamant about the vision for hikers only. However, the NCTA has no power other than persuasion to make the Forest Service or any other landowner follow that vision. The Manistee NF, and the entire Michigan DNR simply refuse to make the trail across their lands hiking only. Corridor management, which would allow "us" to decide on allowed uses is so far in the future I can't even quite imagine it. But I'm really glad I found your blog!
