Count me on the side of saying "I WANT YOU TO STAY" , kind sir.

You have been a warm & thoughtful contributor to this thread & most would want to continue to get to know you.

Folks, you would NOT BELIEVE the venom in FReepmail & even email I have received ~ And yes even some good old FReeper FRying over at Clown Posse because of this thread.

I have found most of the people here are decent people. It is so disturbing to me when minor disagreements or hurt feelings make one feel they must leave.

We aren't going to all be bosom buddies. We will have some we like better than others & some we just really don't care for. But that is okay. Just don't engage the people you don't like.

All of us have different stories. Some are young & just starting out on the life adventure. Wisdom & experience adds a lot to the normally high intelligence I see at FR in general.

The seasoned among us (Older n dirt types) have some years under our belt to know the bigger picture. I hope we can all be patient with each other. We don't have to love each other, but all of us should avoid a mean spirit. Let's save that for the RATS! - not each other.

I am writing this to all participants on list not just ButThreeLeftsDo. Will NOT ping list for it. The regulars do catch up. Any further thoughts would be appreciated. And ButThreeLeftsDo, you comments are the reason this thread exists.. "great meet & greet place". We have umteen threads for political heavy talk & banter. This is different. It is a gathering of friends of all ages & all walks of life & all mentalities on a number of issues.

We want to keep our thread viable & strong presence here at FR. some weeks it will be sparce & other weekends busy due to schedules & just our moods perhaps.
