Religuous ramblings aside, I agree about what really is behind the If I
can't do this or
that, I don't want to live" subject line. Obviously, many people helped
Trippy regardless. Why cant we just leave it at that? Butt I have seen
the snide comments made towards others was well. Just because we are
blind and just because we are hams does not flip a switch and we are
above others. Yeah I aint perfect either but sometimes it just gets the
best of me. ;)
