cfbleachers, that was a touching post. When I read a thread with so many thoughtful comments as this, it gives me great pleasure. While I do not often LOL, I often think, gosh, what a wonderful phrase. And never think of thanking the writer. So thank you and all the other correspondents that have made this thread particularly interesting. And thank you Roger K. for the thoughts on CB, it’s wonderful to have your timely reflections on a development like CB’s article. Of course there are too many good comments here to thank them all, but -

mrkwong: thank you for your post that you summarized, “You have there a clear illustration of theory versus practice.” That crystallized for me why I admire Palin.
