In reply to the discussion: A Long Overdue Appreciation Thread for EarlG, Elad and Skinner. [View all]LiberalLovinLug
(14,173 posts)87. Here Here
In this place I found my oasis during the dark days of Bush Jr.
And I've stayed ever since. My #1 stop every morning. And a lot of it has to do with the spirit of the place. Yes the layout is fantastic, the moderation system is the best on the net, but its the sense of community, kind of like a small town because of the kind of sincerity and dedication that we get from the guys that run the place.
Thanks guys!
