How good the Ukrainians are at PR. Patron is awesome and what a vehicle to spread support. I am in awe of their use of the internet. And, I adore Patron.

with people who can help them. Another sign of their greatness as a people, covering all bases as they fight a (supposed) superpower. They are fighting for a he'll of a lot - their lives, their existence as a nation, and for democracy in their country and around the world.

And he was banned from General Discussion as not news worthy. Times have changed.

BTW, I got another package of the Patron stamps for a friend who admired mine. I'm thinking now of others I know who'd appreciate them...
