Reply #10: I lurked for well over a year [View All]

admiring that DU ability to gather great amounts of factual information and some of the analysis was excellent. The primaries were pretty brutal here and the exchanges ranged from enlightened to outright hostility. The biggest thing was how all of the viewpoints were allowed under one 'house', if you will. Lurking helped me to learn the language - the latest newbies come in and wade right in where angels fear to tread and hence may not understand the community. The sincere passion is most certainly welcome! :toast:
