No, you are not going to get "blasted"...

I don't recall seeing "You can't do that" in anyone's post.

Well, aren't you glad to be able to say "I told you so"? :) I certainly am.
I had forgotten that lovely site, and since we have opened communications
with them, I hope we will be able to use it in the future. (But hopefully
not in February - brrrrr). :)

I don't think that's the case (at least on the public forum). We are trying
to advise you of what has been done (successfully and unsuccessfully) in the
past. I think a page school could be a lovely idea. However, I think that
such a thing might very well have similar problems to Children's Activities.
But I don't have any experience in running such things, I only have
observations. I think it would be wonderful if you (and other hardworking
people) could put together a way to keep children occupied and interested in
their parent's hobby. I don't doubt you could do the job.
>If you have a problem with the discussion, that's fine.
True, constructive criticism would be more welcome. I hope we can all
remember that it is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
Arrividerci,
Alessandra
