I wanted to thank you for the above message. As a fellow list member, I did not agree with your earlier concerns, although I certainly appreciate how time consuming it is to read all the emails. But I wanted to express my admiration and respect for your willingness to hear and respond to the feedback of other members. You may well have made internet history by being so reflective - since most people just seem to walk away in anger. I wonder how different things would be everywhere if each of us followed your lead of "looking in the mirror". Thank you. I am glad you are on this list and hope you will stay with us. We cannot afford to lose someone with such insight.
