I did it right off, and for the reason you state.<br /><br />Then I had to change it right back, when I got emails from people who couldn't comment at all.<br /><br />Blogger just sucks lately. Hopefully soon I'll be migrating elsewhere.Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03442354270552212335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632928765983902491.post-14039083985820589832012-03-15T09:52:45.972-06:002012-03-15T09:52:45.972-06:00Yeah, that's too bad.

Can't imagine what a set of Britannica would cost now.<br /><br />We had a set of "World Book" encyclopedias I bought at a garage sale when my sons were small. We literally wore them out before the boys were done with high school.MamaLibertyhttp://www.thepriceofliberty.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632928765983902491.post-68953401842456965212012-03-14T23:22:07.895-06:002012-03-14T23:22:07.895-06:00Me and my Grandpa would watch TV when I was a kid ...Me and my Grandpa would watch TV when I was a kid and something would come up which we didn't know about. The first thing he'd say is "Let's go look it up", and we'd grab appropriate encyclopedia volume. I can still remember the smell of those books... <br /><br />Joel, just a suggestion. Google has seen fit to completely screw Blogger up (something they're exceedingly good at) and now we can't follow comments anymore. The pop-up comment box like you have no longer has the "click to subscribe" option. Neither does the "new interface" same page comment section. <br /><br />Many folks have quit commenting on Blogger blogs with the new interface because they can't follow the conversation, myself included. Too much trouble with my limited time to go reload every blog I commented on (even if I could keep track of them all) to look for new comments/responses. <br /><br />It's your blog, do whatever you want. But it would be much better for those who comment if you'd ditch the pop up comment page and go back to the old Blogger interface...Mayberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07664966137470121099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632928765983902491.post-69078102039083266072012-03-14T19:00:00.770-06:002012-03-14T19:00:00.770-06:00Money was tight, but my parents somehow managed to...Money was tight, but my parents somehow managed to buy a set.<br /><br />I remember sitting down and reading it........I love the feel of books. Internet ain't the same. <br /><br />I agree, Joel. It was an old friend. None of the other encyclopedias were anywhere near as good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632928765983902491.post-32690513347398841332012-03-14T18:28:21.562-06:002012-03-14T18:28:21.562-06:00That is kind of a bummer.
