And Michael, you are a dear gentleman, but please know that if you give me the equivalent of a pat on the head for every answer I give, I'm going to puke. I posted this publicly rather than pm so that any other well-meaning individual will also know what my personal tastes are. I know you mean well and are trying your best to encourage people to stick around, so I thought you might appreciate some feedback regarding your efforts. I know that I appreciate it when people are honest with me, and you strike me as someone who has an appreciation for the truth like I do. Thank you for listening.
Thanks Elizabeth,I will reflect on your words,wisdom is in the understanding,not so much
in the knowing?

regards michael.


Humilty,coupled with boldness,surprises truth to
reveal herself?
