Richard DeLuca:
I come here to relax, and to share experience and knowledge with my
fellows. And I've been a member since 1994..., almost from the beginning.

That's not possible. This is not a private club for a self-appointed
elite; there is no membership here. There are only participants.

Unfortunately, I no longer find it relaxing, and the last couple of days
have made me realize that it's often more pain than joy around here
anymore.

I feel your pain, forced as you are to read every thread.

For the majority of you, thanks for the help, the laughs, and all the
other pleasant memories. I'm going to miss many of you. For the rest-
remember that no matter what your political stripes, fataticism
(especially the hurtful kind) gives most of us a heartache.

Oh, puh-leez, leave if you will, but spare us the maudlin melodrama.

Davoud
