It's not a double standard to state what is true, but what has happened since this was said is that well maybe there, but look here, here, and here. People looking for things to be imperfect will find them. What is a double standard is to only recognize the bad, while ignoring the good.




THANK YOU!!! I really do appreciate your clarity of thought and ability to REMEMBER the point.. LOL I tend to muddle about in the muck sometimes.. thanks again. THIS is a very good point, and one that needed stating here!

PS: HEY MAGNESS!! I used to live next door to you, in Merrimack! Back in my younger days.. did HS there. Dad used to work in Manchester and I've still got many relatives in the state, most a bit north of you. SMALL world, isn't it?
