Thank you Alan. I think that was a compliment. :-)

I have, of course, followed this thread with concern. My answer to
the whole issue was to try to do as I have for some time. I watch for
questions or comments that interest me and to which I feel I can
contribute. Then I post something which I think is on topic.

Sometimes I start a new topic that I think might be of interest to the
group. But I try to relate it to improving the fun mapuggers will
have with their scopes.

All groups have a flare up from time to time, but with lack of
attention they go away. Mapug has generally worked very well.

Good viewing and imaging to all.
