    change gonna come

    Thanks, Sidney, as always for your clear-eyed sanity.

    Thanks to you posters here who remind me that for all the finger pointing, blame-mongering, there are still intelligent beings here on earth.

    Thanks especially to AJ Calhoun for your way with words.

    I humbly share in your prayer.
