I don't think it was complaining, just that Mac doesn't hang here a lot or start
new threads much.

One other thing to be aware of is that it sometimes takes a while for posts to
even reach the queue in order to be moderated.  I usually figure on waiting 48
hours or so before re-sending a new thread.

And then there are the Twilight Zone posts that go walkabout for weeks and
finally pop up!
