Susan: Very well put, Barry. Nice writing. I always like your point of view. You put a lot of thinking into your posts, and it shows. Also the travelling you have done. There are a lot of people on FFL who seem to want to stir things up. It's nice there are a few persons, like you and Curtis, who tell it like it is. You have such interesting things to say. I always learn something when I read one of your posts. Do you know anything about this Louis person? I thought he said some things about Robin that Robin needed to hear.
