I've kidded you over the years about the welding poem, but I admit that I miss when you and Blue Iris used to post poetry in the Lounge.

The Lounge Wars did not make me smile, but they were a spectacle. To this day, I'd love somebody to explain them to me. In reviewing thse threads, I'm amazed at who is gone and who is still here. Some were TS's; some left; some ended up on that site we're all not supposed to talk about; and I gather many are on Facebook.

I'm glad (and I hope that Skinner is glad) that your life and the lives of others have been changed by DU.
