Welcome back, Gordon. :) One of the key differences between the ExI  
list and other social media is that we appreciate dissenting opinions  
around here. Just don't hijack every thread to beat us over the head  
with same damn opinion every time. I am sad to see John go as well.  
(Well sad I have to post to a different list in order to communicate  
with him.) At least he has stopped with the daily body counts now that  
there has been a changing of the guard at the White House. It was just  
strange how his normally cogent mind became unhinged over a certain  
former president. It was like some kind of bizarre reversed obsession  
or something.
