Delta13's personal narrative, reasoned commentary, and call for inclusiveness represent the reasons I am becoming more hopeful and more confident that we can come to be a whole, united country of thoughtful individuals again.

Thank you Delta 13, and now that you've gotten that "first post" out of the way, please continue to share your thoughts. Most of us are listening appreciatively, and others may someday come to remember to listen instead of to just shout.
