Believe it or not, I am not glued to my computer 24/7. I have a "day job," and once in a while I even actually go to a casino and play blackjack.

So, posts may occasionally sit in my "holding tank" for several hours awaiting approval, as did yours.

So I slept in this morning, okay? :-)

Of course, if you have "bypass moderation" status, your post will immediately appear on the board without my having to okay it.

However, you cannot get "bypass moderation" status unless you have registered your "handle."

Do you see where I'm going with this?

It only takes a few seconds to register a handle. Just click on "Create Profile" at the top of any message board index page. It is not necessary to divulge any personal information, not even an e-mail address.

It had turned into a political discussion which had nothing to do with Las Vegas.
