Just joined DU

Hello all -- odd time to join a discussion forum given how busy I am, but what the hell. Thought I should donate and become a member since I've been an on-again off-again lurker for so long using DU as a news source.

So consider this an overdue Thank You for all of the great info. I've benefited from over the years.

If you have been lurking, then you know that the General Discussion and Late Breaking News forums sometimes scoop the mainstream media. I find that not only is the reporting timely, but the analysis and commentary by DUers adds significantly to the stories and provides perspective often overlooked.

5. Exactly, TT!

I've gone straight to GD, LBN and Politics 20-- regularly.

"I find that not only is the reporting timely, but the analysis and commentary by DUers adds significantly to the stories and provides perspective often overlooked."

Hit the nail on the head here TexasTowelie.
