Some I bowed out of a while ago because they already devolved. I stopped posting in those long before they were worn down (so no attempt at having the "last word").

I am trying to have a polite conversation, expressing my opinions and listening to opinions of others. I have learned a few things, and I hope others found at least passing interest in what I have had to say. Maybe I was a bit too provocative in a few my statements and I have apologized for that several times already. Nowhere have I made a personal comment or been dismissive of someone else's opinion.

Most here have made me feel welcome, and expressed interest in the exchange, and I appreciate that. I hope we can move past personal comments.
