	I rather like this one lol, poster Nathan D Boucher links to High Quality Memorials at Discount Prices - Discount Headstones, and Grave Markers at least it has a vague connection with the blog topic :)

	Ah now i get it lol, I'd looked at the blog before and wondered at the strangeness of the comments lol ... just looked at some comments on the last blog and if you click on the poster's 'names' you get taken to various sites, so it's an advertising thing... for eg if you click on the poster "casino" you go to a gaming site, on some you go to "celebrity sex" (!) etc... I would imagine the posters get paid per click or similar for advertising the sites.

	Hello Joy~~~~~ You'd think that the details of the blog would be more obvious eg one of the options at the top of this screen so it's part of this site.

	I just had a look at it. I rated something with one star. In their description of the help clinic, the fact was omitted that http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/help_clinic/ is still in existence, though one is no longer allowed to post in it nor add to existing topics.

	oh I must admit Ann I hadn't bothered reading the articles. It was the comments that came up that got my attention lol Shelly, maybe they would be pounced upon here for various reasons ? :)

	Ans now I know just why I don't read the blog. What a load of unconnected rubbish. Do these people like the sound of their own voices? What have animals in Africa got to do with a proposed story of the Nativity in hackney for goodness sake?

	just have a look at one of the articles and click on the comments & see what you think of them. They appear strange to me: http://blog.genesreunited.co.uk/?page=1 Shelly, I remember a few years back when Estelle from GR came onto the baords to tell us that she found McAnne a man ie James Bond. It was a long running saga and she came in just at the right time. She was really funny :) Alas we don't see much of them on the boards.

	I came across one entry by accident whilst googling the other week. It had the strangest replies as if most of the posters (who seemed to be from abroad) hadn't read the article but were just saying what a useful site it was because they had been told to (if that makes sense)
