Re: New Facebook group!

I was just talking to a member who hasn't been here in about 10 years. He said he has come on here and tried to PM me but he get's logged out.

What i dislike about FB is it's so flash in the pan. 24 hours later a post is lost. I like how we keep things going and can always find old stuff and bring it back. I call that greater substance, which I am big on in any aspect. I'm not one for superficial.

I use my laptop for both FB and this site. I have no problems posting pictures here. I only use my phone to view the internet. Plus pictures are bigger on a laptop.

I went to one of the groups this week, prompted by an e-mail. It's a Chevy 4x4 only group, which I feel shows limited knowledge in itself. I figure they intended the 4wd only part but why exclude GMCs? Why be so exclusive? So I post a picture from '82 of a '71 K/20 we took on a trip to the beach. I get two comments, so I post two more pictures from the same trip. Crickets....

If I didn't still have the e-mail with the link I would have had a hard time finding the thread a second and, this morning, third time.

I guess that post was "so yesterday". That's what I mean about flash in the pan superficial momentary with limited knowledge. First guy commented on contractor truck with surfboard being a common site in OR. Other guy askes "What size tires?". I replied to both... crickets. Seems like a waste of time to me.
