You are a terrific person. I'm so sorry for my bullish or offensive tones I've taken with you in the past, both publicly on the board and via messages.
    What we had, was a failure to communicate, (that doesn't sound like me, ). I'm not going to say that I've changed much; you though have grown, Farm Boy! If we'd called you, John Boy, I'd call you, John now. Alas, calling you, Farm, would sound weird. Since your name is dmp or something.
    Somewhere along the line, you've grown more thoughtful and less judgmental, that is growth. It's not comfortable moving beyond certainties. I like the improved version much more, we are both better people because of it.

    Nah, I'm still the Jesuit influenced child from my youth. Certainties only apply to how I behave, (or sin, ). Others, I pray for.

    We've all changed and yet not changed.

    I think a lot of us started out on the boards angry because of the political times we were living in, and through our posts, we've come to know each other better over the years. Now we look for things that we have in common instead of things that we have in conflict, thus thinking it's the other person that has changed.

    It's our willingness to listen and discuss that allows us to "see" people differently.
