Thanks, Hilary, your comments help more than you know. I hope the rest of my life can have some meaning. I should listen more and talk less. If I can help anybody in any way I want to do it. I apologize if I have offended anyone. . .I just get so worked over injustice I overract, don't like to just be passive and sit back and take it whether it's me or someone else. I'll keep on bugging my local and national bigwigs, they should know me by now, but probably don't. Just got an invitation to $75-$100 plate reception for my Congressman Ken Calvert, who so far as replied that he will "keep me in mind" if the stem cell bill comes to House. Ha, Ha, Ha! You should see the email I just hunt and pecked out to him. I've told him before he'll have to do more than that if he wants my vote., which he is not getting. Not that he cares. I've argued to all legislators that this issue trumps all others. I"m "Pro-Life", I 'd like to have one and so would every suffering live born human being. Whooops, talking too much, again.
