for one thing... every time i have something profound to say, i find that, alas there are those equally profound here, and usually much quicker.. i do however love puns and wise cracks, and often cant resist the captive audiance..

on the other side of the coin, i am dyslexic, and slowed down some while waiting for the spell checker on DU3..

the good new is that in reading posts for a couple of hours a day, i am exposed to a lot of information.. DU has reinforced what i have come to believe in "my own personal truth" independent of the media sources..
