Can we Have a Happy Day? [View all]

i am just as guilty as the next person who has posted snarky replies to other posts here on DU.

Recently, I've tried to take a different tact. I've been trying to say "thank you" and "good going" to other members who post positive posts.

So, can we have a day, or two, where we support our fellow members for their great posts? Can we not be approving by our silence and post a well deserved "thank you" or other positive messages to them?
