You speak so well for many of us, WillyT (especially those of us who remember black and white TV!). I haven't been here nearly as long, but because, as you say, this is the place to get info, my understanding and comprehension of politics has increased exponentially!

And there are SOOOOOO many good people. I'm lookin' at you.
