Thanks for starting a thread that people could get into. Obviously there has been some meaningful exchange that even made you change your mind. Thats what discussion is about - looking at different viewpoints and considering why they are the way they are and how they changed over time. While I have taken one side for the sake of discussion, I surely see the value of the others input. I have enjoyed the exchange. These personal level things help to tie the group together because we can form a better understanding of how other members REALLY feel about us and themselves. I feel closer to Heather after this - she is becoming (in my mind) someone I have an emotional feel for - not someone who types unfelt responses. People have been very GENUINE in this thread.
