As a retiree, I spend a great number of hours reading and logging on to internet websites, blogs, etc.

Having been on the internet since 1993, I feel I have some credibility in judging a website and its contributors.

Today I have just been astounded by the wealth of information, the intelligence of contributors, the lack of foul language, the absence of name calling, the obvious respect of one contributor to another – what a wonderful learning experience this has been for me.

Thank you to all contributors, even though you have made me drastically examine my own educational shortcomings, you have brightened my day – even while realizing all future reading on the internet will be a disappointment in comparison.
