There should be the ability for you to select the portion of text you
wish to reply that would be included in your reply.

It can be mouse (right click, select text and then hit reply) or
keyboard selection of the text you want to comment about. I don't
know for Web TV .

I think we now have you on the same single "Subject line", for now.

That is important.

I growed [sic] me some big matters one year. Cherries nearly as big
as a half-dollar. I had vines 14' long -at least. And plenty of stake
matters. I gave many to three neighbors and still had plenty for
canning tomato sauce.


Really can't make sauce from cherry/salad tomatoes, they contain way
too much water... I tried, they need to be cooked so long to reduce
that it no longer tastes anything like tomato.... I remember simmering
that 27 quart pot for more than 30 hours.... a total waste of time,
effort, energy, and tomatoes.


True, I use Roma's for sauce. Blanch, remove skin and seeds and just use
the pulp. Outside of eating the little ones straight up or in salads, I
sometimes toss them in my chili.
