Hi Mitch Larramore. I had to smile just a bit, especially at your 'farewell' message at the end of the post. I would be surprised to find that you were misunderstood in terms of motives. Typically, I do not think that courage is a requisite emotion to posting opinions, but in your case, it obviously was. You have a good heart, me thinks. No fear.
