Ditto, Michelle. We all have different feelings and opinions -- and nobody is
trying to tell you what to do. What is right for one person isn't right for
another. One thing I like about the list is the way we play devil's advocate
for one another -- sometimes asking hard questions. Then

I can't tell you how shocked and sad and tearful I was/am to see your

last thing you need--especially you, who have given so much of yourself

the other thing i have to say, tho i think that tamara's comments

Tamara,

your personal experience with RR. Your language and tact was in no way
interpreted, (certainly not by me) as a definitive slam on them
personally. You were very clear about your involvement. It started a

I thought that perhaps the issue I initiated was begining to escalate and

what's really sad is that, with the in-fighting that goes on, people

That's why I can't do rescue! I can't give them up! He's turned into the
