Hello Again DU. It's Good to Be Back!

I would like to first say that I have been a lurker and member since 2001. I will be straight with you and say that I was banned back in the day. After that, I continued to read DU every day, and share articles and posts with friends and family members. DU is an amazing source of information and ammunition (against the GQP). I appreciate that!
I'll go back even farther than that to give you all some background as to how I came to DU. I posted for several years at Democrats.com. Nothing against them, but some people there posted articles from DU, so I checked out DU a little closer. I was amazed by the diversity of opinion, and quality writing, and it seemed much more fast-paced. Let me say, that it was humbling, and I was a bit intimidated by the intellects here, but I dipped in here and there.
Anyway, thank you for letting be be back, and I hope that it is ok that I posted this. I have missed you.

I voluntarily left before I was banned during the 2016 primary. Stayed away for a couple years, but DU's been my political family since 2004 and it really is the best political discussion site I've ever found.

But if you guess correctly, I’ll confirm it. I’ll try to add a little more to my profile.
