Just putting this up for people who don't know.
1. The potatoe famine was caused by a fungus which spread onto everyone's fields. The potatoes were then unfit to eat.
2. The Irish could not afford anything else to eat, because the potato was not only a food source, it was a main source of income. So, no potatoes=no food and no money. So, many could not buy anything else. Also, the English taxed them, so it didn't leave much in the way of money.
3. They did hunt and fish, but since everyone else was doing it, there wasn't a lot of fish and game to go around. They weren't picky. It's just that they were so dependent on their main crop, when it all died out nobody could do anything about it.
there you go. Now I can leave this stupid thing for good.

Have you tried changing the bulk settings so your youtube stuff gets forwarded to your regular inbox? That used to happen to me all the time with emails from hotmail, since I have a yahoo account XD
wooboy! Once I didn't check my email for a while and I had 81 messages in my regular inbox... since i have a fanfiction account and had just posted something

I dunno how to forward the messages and I have a yahoo account, too!

OH well open the messages, and along the task bar in the mail there should be "mark as not spam" or something.. or move to inbox....... that SHOULD do it..?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Moving to the inbox doesn't work. =/
But I'll try the other ones.
