Dyslexic participants

Can anyone explain why when I post an activity and specifically request that replies come on my private email, the majority of replies come into my glocals inbox.


Is it that everyone has been taught speed reading and only picks up those parts of the message which interests them?


The result is that some potential participants do not get notified of the meeting point simply because I am not willing to reply to glocals emails as quickly as my private ones.


Do other posters have the problem that people spend time to send a message saying that they are thinking of coming, so a place is semi-reserved for them and they disappear?


Am I just moaning and I have to learn to live with this?

I am pretty sure that dyslexia --i.e,  an auditory, visual or attentional learning disability -- is the cause for inconsideration or glocals douche-baggery.  I'm going to assume you were just being cheeky.

Do you  need a hare for Monday? Not by any means insisting as am out in the mountains both Sat and Sun

Our lysdexic society once had a protest carrying signs saying 'lysdexics untie' but  seem to be misunderstood - judging by the fraction.

Sigh.  So much for my valiant efforts to protect discriminated groups.  Perhaps typo incompetents could become a protected class? Yell


TA - no info as of yet re 1 May hash, but I am sure you would be *thrilled* to dash down the mountain and be our fearless leader? Laughing
