I made the mistake
I did it and I apologize for the issue this has raised. I am trying to learn how to administer this site and it did not come with a handbook. The only method to learn it is by trial and error. The hosts of the website tell me there is no way to set up discussion areas by category nor is there a way to archive the discussions by year. They did make a suggestion that I was willing to try. I copied another posting and posted it and then tried to convert it to a PDF file and move it to the Our PDF side. The attempt failed so I deleted the posting to try something different. The second posting I used to test was one I tried posting myself a while back. I was trying to see if I could post from the admin side versus the user interface. Unfortunately I did not save a copy or I?’d repost it. Since someone claims to have printed it, even though I can?’t imagine why, I would hesitate to ask them to repost it as there is not assurance it will be what I originally wrote and I don?’t want to go down that finger pointing avenue.
Readers, I am no computer whiz. The technology behind this site is extremely limited and most of you have much more power at your desktop than is offered by our host. I have more technology available at mine. We continue to strive to make this site more user-friendly and less cumbersome than it is now. With that there is bound to be hiccups along the way.
I am sorry if I offended anyone. Next time I try to make an improvement to the site, I?’ll set my alarm for 3 in the morning when there are less people printing off discussions.
