To all the regulars, all the watchers:
Kevin is the reason this site exists; it has taken a great toll on him personally, but I know he does it selflessly.
Col is the quite aide-de-camp, behind the scenes, favoring right when it is right, and opposing when it is wrong, and sorely missed when he misses even a day.
For those who do not know, I have been chief supporter in a number of ways, not to my credit, but:...because I can have some small relevance here in helping to further truth, thanks to our primary work-horses.
I've also been a pain in the butt, in the process. I'm ashamed I let my dander rise with erickrussell in a silly contest over the meaning of simple words; worse, I am not ashamed that I insulted science, and it was (possibly justifiably) mis-understood that I was insulting personhood.
In case it has not been understood before, I highly regard the difference between saying: "You are a liar." and "What you said is untrue."
Please respect that difference, even when you "have been offended" by totally insensitive "offense". If you feel "forced", be forced to correct, not alienate.
I will not post much for the next few weeks, but I hope to be #1 poster again, someday soon. In the meantime, there are some real champs on this site, fallible but searching for truth who have stood up since I was a factor. Listen! Learn! Respond! Build!
For technical reasons that just don't matter, my screen name has been changed from srchuck to senorchuck. But, names, letters, references do not matter as much as a genuine search for truth; most here have that. GO FOR IT!
May God Bless you all.
Chuck
