If you submit material for this Blog Section, these RULES apply:
Blogging is not the same thing as complaining to the Trusts or notifying the Trusts of a problem.
1 Please be nice to each other & do not attempt to hurt people.
2 Treat each other with respect & remember, you don't know if you are talking to a child or a much older &
wiser person. Young can teach old & old can teach young, we learn from each other. So keep in mind the
material & language you use in your blogging.
3 It is okay to have different opinions, & disagree about things. It is not okay to start an argument over your
different opinions.
4 There are some things that should remain private, & we ask you to keep that in mind when blogging.
5 No spamming please. We want a place to chat amongst ourselves, without having to feel that we are buying
something. Feel free to discuss work, offer opinions & advice, but we do not want our blog used as a means
for spammers to advertise their wares. This will warrant a warning & possible exclusion from the Blog Section.
6 Do not exchange personal information (names, addresses, phone numbers, etc) with others using the Blog
Section. It is never a good idea to give out this kind of information on websites.
