Marv:
Thank you for your measured response.  It is certainly fitting and appropriate in the
circumstances.
I believe it to be a (very) reasonable offer to those who wish to present their case
and views on the subject and I might add, a generous one for those (seemingly)
wanting and needing an advertising forum for their product.  It is now time to dazzle
us with your brilliance and cease trying to baffle us with your bu........t!
It is appreciated and welcome (and not unexpected from you Marv).  Your time and
effort on behalf of this forum is, as always, gratefully recognized.
I am quite real...............albeit, not quite as vocal as some..........until
something needs to be said.
You might want to consider me just another one of the 500 patiently, intently,
listening, taking it all in and reacting as required.  Just like lining up for that
ILS.... in trail.  You don't know who or what is at the controls.......really don't
care, as long as they maintain their airspeed and are where they're supposed to be
when they're supposed to be there, doing exactly what they're supposed to be to
ensure that their aircraft makes the touchdown zone without incident in the most
difficult of conditions!  We're mutually dependent for that short period of common
bonding in need and yet, later in the terminal, pass each other without any
acknowledgment, comforted by our own understanding of the magnitude of what we have
actually accomplished.
So it is here.
Regards,
VD

PS  I'm with you and believe that we should have had "public" political debates with
Nader, Buchanan and the others along with the "establishment" candidates.  It would
have made a difference and been a stimulus to the system.
