78. What Will Happen To Our Current Journals?

Many thanks Skinner and all of you,

For providing this forum for us. It means more than I can say to those of us who didn't agree with the Selection of 2000. I wish I'd found my way over here much sooner.

As far as the new format, it looks great, but I'm concerned about the remark that 'Journals' will be 'coming back.'

Should we copy our current Journal entries to our computers during this process to prevent their deletion?

I'd been deleting links and writings as I put them in my Journal for safe keeping.

Just a note here will be fine, whatever way you guys have to do this is great.

I think that other posters with Journals might like an answer to this question as well.

Much respect and highest regards.
