    Cranky Yankee , can you see your own signature then on your phone?
    Old phones,  we still use original little Nokias.

    My phone doesn't have data, so I have no internet/wi-fi.  I can make calls and text, that's it.

    I think many organisations believe forums are simply too much trouble so aren't interested in what is actually of benefit, or otherwise, to the users.  If membership dropped it would give them the perfect excuse to simply shut the whole thing down.  I was a member of two photographic forums which suffered that fate.

    Has there also been a change in the Account and Privacy settings where there's a tick box option to "Display my email publicly"?  I haven't noticed this before.  I'm not sure that many would choose to take advantage of this!

    This is a good example of the gulf between English language speakers.  I have a good grasp of British geology and soil types, but absolutely no idea what these soils might be.   Even a USA-orientated google search leaves me with little understanding.  

    I guess my : "Surrey Hills greensand" leaves you equally baffled.  I could even be more detailed and say: Hythe beds.  You would be right to guess that it is sandy.

     location: Surrey Hills, England, ex-woodland acidic sand.

    Actually, just my feeble attempt at humor by describing my soil type like one might describe a fine wine.

    My mother and I took a class a few years ago and they assigned everyone the task of finding their soil type using the web soil survey website.  You can plug in your exact location in the US and get a precise breakdown of your soil types.  All 3 of my soil types are rocky, stony, and just altogether terrible.

    When I read your soil description @CrankyYankee, I was also intrigued.  I immediately thought of Pinotage (rustic rather than fine though!)

    Does anyone know that the "points" and "visits" statistics represent on the analytics panel in the profile? Is it visits of others to the profile page or visits of the user to site pages? Thanks

    the latter I should think for visits, I doubt 27,000 people have looked at my profile
