I just posted on threads and when I had a few hundred posts, THEN I felt secure/brave enough to start a thread. In my first thread I posted an article and was SKEWERED by DUers because it was "an old article" and EVERYONE had
already read it.

and they were more than happy to let me know that. It can be BRUTAL here, so grow some VERY THICK SKIN.
For THIS poster (OP). She/he posted, IMCPO, in an accusatory tone. As if Michael Moore said he was in NOLA and she wanted proof. That's how I read it anyway.

Welcome to DU, BTW!
