Alexis, you have not disappointed me. I know you are a kindred spirit.j
I was going to post a new thread but now I do not have to.
You have said it all and in such temperate and measured way.
As long as there are human beings like you, I will not despair.

I do not have many material treasures. Time is one of the treasures I value a lot of and at my age I do not have much of it. Lately I used some of this limited treasure to keep this precious AWAD talk going, staying up late to contribute a little to help Geoff, milum, CK, wwh, Angel, SilkMuse, ModestGodess, (I will think of the others later)
keep Anu's vision from dying.
I could cry..
But you said it all
Thank you
