I would like to relate a personal story.. If you want, just skip the story but read the last part of this message... This Christmas everyone was really excited. We waited every day for it to get here. At 5:00am the kids were all up and we started to get ready. Then Bamm, the power went out just as we put on the music. We didn't know it then but a transformer station had blown and we would be without power for over 9 hours. I lit a candle for some light and we waited for the power to come back on. We waited until 6:30, just sitting around and talking, looking at the dark tree filled with goodies, when my youngest son said "Dad, why don't we light all of the candles in the house and get on with Christmas". We did and we sang our own Christmas songs, and had one of the best Christmas's that I can ever rememeber. We even cooked pancakes in the fireplace (we honestly did), tasted a little funny but I have to say they were some pancakes that I will remember for years. The lights finally came back on in the afternoon and life went on. I feel that this is somewhat like where we are with DGIV. We have had our power failure and are just waiting for the lights to come back on. We all know that they will come back on, BUT WHEN?? Well I am saying to all of the DGIV family, lets light those candles ourselves and get on with it. The power will come back on when it comes on, not before, and we can only do what "WE" can by ourselves. Sitting and waiting and feeling bad in the dark, is not the way. My buy order, for my father goes in today!!!!!!!!!! William Brotherson (wb229ahc@micron.net)
