Thank you so much for posting this. I guess I've always been mildly curious, but this is so very personal that there are questions answered that I never would have asked. How very sad that he has had such personal tragedies to overcome and learn to live with.

I'm not an overly religious person, but I have always liked the old addage that when God closes a door, He opens a window. Maybe FReepers was JR's window.

And what little I have ever donated, I donated freely, a token amount for what I have gained from Free Republic. If JR made a multi-million dollar profit, I would not care, and would continue to contribute to a very deserving man and his enterprise.

I first learned about Free Republic when the website was given on Hannity & Colmes (I think). Just wish I had known about it during the 2000 election debacle.

I've been reading/posting here since the summer of '98, with one health-related hiatus - picked out a new screen name when I came back. In all that time JimRob has been a class act. Better than that - if JimRob is ever accused of being a Christian - there will be plenty of evidence.
