I know how you feel! I have been mostly just lurking on this thread for some time, not all that long, but I am sure going to miss it! I hope the ping list lives on!

We have lost a poster, Tony, but the Nation has gained a great asset! I look at it that way. I am thankful he has the clout and ability to make the kind of difference I would like to but an unable to! I feel like I have a voice in the White House again, One coming from outside the bubble, and that really is going to make me sleep better at night!

I am very proud that someone we havecheered, supported, listened to, prayed with and talked to is going to have this opportunity to make a difference. I feel like one of the family is moving away...but we will get to see him every day, and he will be very good at this job. It's just...we'll miss him terribly.

Tony if you're lurking..you are still in our thoughts and prayers for your success and your health.
