text: You are back Mr. Minshall. I've missed your commenting. I have stopped commenting as much.  I actually thought of you the other day and wondered how you are doing.  I inadvertantly lost track of the last response you gave me and was disappointed too.
  
  I agree with what you have said about the right not knowing what the left is doing. One argument against that practice is sometimes by announcing that someone has donated may encourage someone else to do the same. I have had that experience telling someone I donate toilet paper to Bean's and so they now donate toilet paper. I do disagree with your last comment to amylou though. People need to be careful of making black and white statement.  Saying that white people don't turn in theirs is a false statement.  Some do and some don't.  I didn't get the sense that she was being self-righteous.
