      Okay I don't think this one sucks, it has worth wile content: Building a Bridge...[^] Not even any spelling errors. I looked at yours, they look good. I'll use yours as a guideline. Are you a mentor here on CP John?

      Actually, I'm a bit mental... I'm a mentor everywhere. People look to me as an example (what kind of example is totally dependent on the situation).

                          I'm thinking of writing a tip. My past tips have not gone so well, they don't get a lot of views or votes and the votes are not so great, I don't think the tip is all that bad. I think a tip should be be a short bit of experience you can offer, not a full article. What are your thoughts? What makes a good tip?
