Headline News Discussion Group This forum is Hosted and Moderated by Rick. How this forum is set up is the Forum Mod will make an initial post regarding a News Story and everyone can reply to that post with their comments and discussions. The reason we have one specific "Thread Starter" is because we want this forum to stay focused just on the most recent New Stories we receive. If we allow everyone to start a thread we risk losing our focus on the specific articles that we want to deal with today. Please view our many other forums where various topics can be started by everyone. Thank you for your co-operation and participation.
