    Posted a thread and while composing it end up answering your own
    query. I've found on a number of occasions that just writing a
    problem or dilemma down tends to clarify my decision before I've
    seen a single reply from the forum users.

    Often before I've pressed submit on the thread I wonder if it is
    even worth sending the query to the forum but then I just let
    it fly anyway to see if any other opinions bounce back.....

    Maybe I am someone who needs to write a problem down
    and let it settle in my mind through read/processing before
    I make a decision !

    Yeah this is one of the reasons therapists recommend venting on paper when you're angry/depressed. I tend to do it when my thoughts become irrational at times and it put things into perspective.

    Yeah I've had this before. I was going to post a PI thread and when I had it typed up I asked myself "What would WWM say?" (when he was posting there regularly). The answer was "why haven't you called her?" and the answer was right. THANK YOU WWM!!!
