[OhREALLY?]

In the years to come, we will refer to this as "The Easter Exodus". Our grandchildren will sit at our knees, and we will tell them the old stories about the good old days of FR, before ladies got migraines and men had 56K dialup connections and scroll mice that waved and messy fonts.

We few will be virtual living legends, explorers who went beyond the pale, mapping out the uncharted regions of cyber space that will forever be known as "Free Republic". We will set the standard among conservatives with confidence and boldness, knowing that we were not defeated by bells and whistles and inability or unwillingness to embrace change.

Do you want a t-shirt that says, "I Was Beta'd by Free Republic..and Survived!"?

You are very dramatic. This is Easter, there are compelling forces of joy and life that will always mean more than a software modification.

Not surprisingly, you get the message completely wrong. My tenure here is a non factor, except for the fact that I am adaptable, understanding and sanguine. The people who've been here the longest have the fundamental wisdom ... patience, grace and confidence in the proprietors. The longest tenured folks should be the most agitated by change ... we're not.
