I would say repost it Barbararose, but the reality is that absent a "sticky" function, that thread will soon be just another lost thread. One not particularly satisfying "workaround" is to refind threads/posts worthy of note and create a new thread containing a link to the post, and put a "special" word in the new post's title so that word can be used as a search key in the future. (I know of no way to edit the title of a thread without simply reposting it.) Such word could be something like "stickie", or "repost", or "Look here", but it should be a word/term that is generally agreed upon. Unfortunately, without the ability to note "special" threads, even such a word or term will at some point be "lost in the archives". Of course, should the thread that first notes the "special word or phrase" be resurrected periodically for the next nine years, like the now-infamous "death of a forum" thread, it should become 'corporate culture' at the vermicomposting site. Maybe by then, Garden Web will have upgraded the forum software to include a "stickie" function. By the way, there's more to implementing a "stickie" function than just "poof, you now have a stickie function". Most importantly, it costs money because "stickies" 1) increase storage requirements (in truth trivially, but let's do keep in mind that this site is about money, not "goodness"), and 2) "someone" - usually someone called a "moderator" - has to be the arbiter of what gets "stuck". Either Garden Web modifies the whole forum to allow such administrative control to specific people for each sub-forum, or they have to take that responsibility on themselves. The first means more potential for getting hacked, and the second means modifying the forum administration software. Both cost money. As "difficult" as the above might sound, the truth is that simply using a "modern" forum software package would completely mitigate all the 'trouble' associated with the change, and improve the editor and improve the search engine. BUT, it most certainly would cost money. Paul

I always suggest one learn to use Google incorporating site:gardenweb.com. This gives a better faster more complete search. Some forums of GW's generation even recommend it in their help. Example ~ Chris0333 WI site:gardenweb.com ~ pulls up over 270 gits in a fraction of a second. I will try and help using +, -, quotes and the like if you will give some examples you want to work with.

Given how much content Houzz has now, they really need to fix their search system. Even searching for their own articles (stories) is useless. I put in a search for "Heating off-grid house". The first article that showed up was "House Rule: Off With Your Shoes". Really? How exactly is that relevant? I'm sure Houzz has lots of relevant content to offer me, but if it's impossible to find, what's the point. I have much better luck searching through Google, which sometimes takes me back to Houzz, but often doesn't. Hey Houzz - you are losing your audience because of your crappy search queries.

Thank you all. I was able to get it with tsugajunkie's link. I changed all my bookmarks, so hopefully I won't have any more issues. Annie, I think I have things figured out. IF I decide to proceed, I want to can part of it as just meat with a little broth, and part meat and lots of broth (using soup instructions). I do have a question for the hot pack poultry. Can you cook raw turkey in broth until 3/4ths done then put in the jars? Or can you refrigerate 3/4ths done turkey while making the broth? I have to make my own broth because of food allergies. I have done soup before but not just meat, so I'm a little intimidated.
