Mike,

Chronic and long-term illness is a terrible thing to go through, and not just for the patient. Most times, the patient's loved ones suffer equally but in a different way.

We'd wondered where you'd been keeping yourself lately. That's great about your proposal! I'm always happy to hear that something might come along and save us poor, beleaguered taxpayers a few bucks. You'll have to remember to tell us about it when you can and, of course, if you can.

I am ever amazed at people who do not automatically see the tremendous value and wealth of information the Internet offers. Strangely, even in the area where I live, I meet maybe one in twenty people who shares my enthusiasm for the Internet and what it can offer. Another five might express some interest. The other fourteen (better check the math <g>) will include the hardcore phobic to the contentedly misinformed.

I've heard through the grapevine that a few of my 3D friends are seriously worried about me being on the Internet. They are convinced that I am unknowingly communicating with convicted felons in prison, pornographers who should be there, and nothing but low-life thugs. It would be funny if they didn't genuinely believe this.
