Haboob...
To reply to specific people, just put their name at the beginning of your comment, as I've just done in this comment.
You can also use high-lighting to point out whatever you've quoted, if using the "quote" function is a bit too difficult - and I'll say, it's driven ME up a wall or two!!
At the top of each "Post a reply" box, you'll see a grey-background "tool bar".
In the SECOND row of that "tool bar", at the very end, you'll see a large letter "A" and an "ab" with what is supposed to be a "crayon" icon.
The "large letter A" lets you color your TEXT - the letters and numbers.
The "ab with weird crayon icon" will let you color the BACKGROUND of your text.
You must FIRST High-light what you want to color. Do this by positioning your 'cursor' - that thing that your 'mouse' moves around - at the beginning of the sentence you want to color, and HOLDING DOWN THE LEFT BUTTON ON THE MOUSE, 'drag' it across.
Your 'selected' text should now be 'hi-lited' - but NOTHING will happen at this point, unless you go STRAIGHT to the "A" or "ab crayon" button and click on the little 'arrow' next to them.
Then you can select the colors that you want.
Please feel free TO EXPERIMENT.

Minimus, I need help, too. I get beaten up quite often by certain posters-- If you take sides with Minimus and I , then we shall feel compelled to help you out, when you get beat up-- see how this works?--We all need help, except maybe OutLaw, he knows when to take the side exit before the folding chairs start flying.
We used to have badges- when you made it to 1000 posts you became a Jedi- that was your all grown up badge-
If you are new, wait until near the end of page one to comment- see which way the wind is blowing first - by commenting on page one, your name will be remembered more. After posting a comment, try to check back and see, if anyone asked you a question or commented on your comment- it's good ettiquette. Ignore the boorish comments you get, if you can. AND, try not to let anyone know what your "hot button" is--
Some posters here are strange- hearing voices from God is a tip off- good luck.

GOOD one, Moshe!!
Listen to Moshe on this, Haboob. There are a few schizophrenics posting here - they think they hear the voice of "god" or "jeheshua" or whomever...
Me - I just heard my stomach rumble. That's about the only "voice" I ever hear...

Some posters have been here 7, 8, 9 10 years- lots of wisdom- unless it was just one year of experience repeated 10 years in a row. So don't feel intimidated by someone with a kazillion posts, you may be the one who has nailed the topic spot on-

Welcome to the board, Haboob!
Sit back, enjoy, join in when you feel like it, and if you hit on a thread where people seem to be getting very angry you can choose to join in, steer clear, or stay on the sidelines and enjoy the spectacle.
You'll find threads that are full of information. Threads that are full of different points of view. Threads where people rally round to help one another.
And, best of all, sometimes, when you just want to relax and the television is boring, threads where people are just having a good time. Like this one...oh, sorry, I didn't mean it, it's deeply serious...

Welcome to the forum. Go to the home page and look at "best of topics," scandals, etc. If you haven't already, look at the websites:
You will find a lot of cool stuff on these cites. There are of course many, many other really good sites. Youtube has some terrific videos.
