of what it really means to be a Duer.

A long-time DUer responded to a post I made 2 months ago; and I'm unable to retrieve it from "My Posts".

It was a paragraph-long "definition" of what the essence of being a DUer was.

I vaguely recall it involving being kind, courteous, respectful of others, honest, etc......it was about 50 words long.

And hugs....

We're huggers.
