I don't even visit lists, which atmosphere I don't like. I suppose these people feel attracted to the rough atmosphere here even if they are afraid of getting exposed, if they would write themselves. I still I wonder why they are afraid of thanking you publicly? I have never observed that my honest accounts, and exposing my personal feelings, had gotten ridiculed here. Questioned sometimes, but mostly in good spirit. > So I applaud you for having the courage to speak your truth here, > for all to see. You are great. > And no one ridiculed Jim for doing that.
