I've got 1 percent left on my phone, so at the last minute I'm saying hello, because I like y'all (even if I'm not a follower/convert).

But while I'm here, I'll take any flak you got -- I won't argue or go into lib disproving mode. I saw the leftist AMA the other day and left disappointed, so I just thought I'd take the temperature of the board a little, from my nonthreatening obvious interloper account.

(And if I don't respond, it's because my phone died and I'll be back later, charged.)

Frustrated, furious, anxious, excited, cool as a cucumber -- How are you?
