You and those like you are a huge part of why DU is such a fantastic refuge for liberals. (The founders and caretakers of the site also deserve some love, though!)

Well, maybe not.

[malaise]

86. We can dream - I'm closer to those numbers in reverse

The thing is that given the paternal side of my family's genes it will be highly unlikely that I'll be alive in 17 years. What's worse is that the few who have made it into their 90s don't remember anyone or anything.

Thanks to all the DUers who have made me feel really welcome here from way back when.
DU is the best of the USA on line. :

[Ligyron]

84. Yes, at LEAST 17 more!

You should be a permanent fixture on The Greatest, ‘cause you ARE!
