We talked often about DU and JPR. BuelahWitch, whose name was Leslie, was increasingly frustrated with DU, and said that in the last few months, she felt depressed after visiting DU. It was such a big part of her life for a long time, but she was spending more time at JPR.

I don't think she encountered any hostility here or she would have told me. She was a bit feisty and probably would have gone toe to toe with anyone without a moment's hesitation.

I will be sharing this at JPR. I tried numerous times today to cut and paste this, but my iPad and laptop aren't cooperating for some reason. I'll get to a desktop tomorrow and take care of it.

Thanks for your kind words. I hope somehow she is aware of the outpouring of love and support expressed here.
