    Anonymous , get it through your brain. You take pleasure in hurting other peoples feelings with your criticisms, you insult people on the sights for little mistake, seems like you are one of the readers who are there for themselves only. So the admin seems to be fed up with you. Thats why you are not seeing your comments. Dno is not the sight for your backlashes. Try something else.

    Thanks to this community man for his efforts we need more like him. However, I would have prfer to see a photo of him actually clearing and not posing for the camera. It would have conveyed a better message.

      Hello because you posting on every thing and lately you are using derogatory words at people. It’s very clear and simple to see.
      Any way I can’t see any fallen bamboo this man is cutting rather he’s posing for a photo.

      Ano…You are not the only one .DNO like to pretend that they support freedom of expression. But you get words like “you said that before,your comment awaits clarification” when you write the truth .
