No, no! Please don't feel like you have to shush! Quite honestly, I have come to understand that it is very helpful for me to have my stances and practices and opinions challenged on these boards... even when I don't agree. It has caused me to on balance be much less "reactive" and precipitous in my interactions with people in all walks... not just with W, and that has helped me be a better, happier person with better relationships with those I care about.

Sometimes I think I come across on here as too angry or obstinate or whatever... and I am also trying to temper that these days as well. I am very grateful for all of the time and care and effort and thoughtfulness that most everyone puts into their interactions here... and in a spot and regarding a topic that is pretty much universally painful oh, about 95% of the time :-/
