Bob... you just feel like a lot of us... and because some think that we 
"aren't in the 21st Century" doesn't mean we are old foggies...   HI

bottom line.... Face Book is NOT for everyone.  However,  I do 
warn......."USER beware".... it ain't all a rose garden.

Frankly, I do NOT like it.  And trying to convince me otherwise is futile.
I have better things to do.

So... IF you want to spend the time with it...and IF you want to put up 
with the "trade offs"...and there are some no matter how much you guys 
try to convince us, then fine.  You do that.  Just don't try to convince 
me that it's wonderful.  That too is futile.

Bottomline, it is not for me and some others on this list.  So solly, by 
golly. :-)

Again.... to each his/her own.

I'd say...  end of subject.  Now back to ham radio.
