I agree totally with jcmc...seriously, as a newcomer to this forum I look very much to reading information that is pertinent to the island...the dining, the opening and closing of restaurants, new places just starting, helpful comments on what is happening on the island and information about all that the island offers to those who have been enjoying the island for many years and for those that have yet to enjoy!
I find it extremely tedious to read the back and forth petty squabbling and one-upmanship, private insider chatter...a lovely pastime on a relaxing time spent, in addition to dining, drinking and fun and frivolity, is definitely settling down with a goof book. I am going to get that book, Amy!!
