Re: For Martha/Colleen

[Guest guest]

Hi Colleen...

Just like one big happy family right ? Occasionally there's going to

be dissagrements but it always works out somehow and hopefully at the

end of the day everybopdy learns something.

I agree with Ron.....their loss, our gain. Martha has a lot of good

things to say and I'm glad shes here.

I'm glad you mentioned the part about e-mails losing their meaning

without the spoken word because I think it's important to remember

this and take what you need from posts and leave the rest without

getting too upset if things don't sound exactly kosher sometimes.

Good to hear from you...
