I tried doing the email thing MANY years ago - and failed. I don't always post what is in alignment with my thinking, but rather try to post items of interest from ALL sides. I am NOT a good dump truck, as Crystal River says. In addition, with Lyme disease, I never know how I will feel from one hour to the next, and I found that I had the energy to post what I do OR handle kind and not so kind comments - but NOT BOTH. It takes time AND energy to research information that is informative and meaningful, and my energy is in short supply most of the time. I would be so grateful if this were not the case!! In short, I agree with oldcurmudgeon that "RMN is not a place to have extended discussions about things, but rather a place to acquire information -- what the reader does with that information is totally up to them." Thanks to RMN, Raye, Hobie, and Lynda I am able to fulfill part of my mission here on Earth, and I am grateful to the Readers at RMN for understanding my shortcomings.

MANY Blessings,
Lymerick
