I liked Andy's thoughts on this subject. I thought as many members as possible should read it. He mentioned it in the context of the American experience. While I think, in general, he is correct, I think it is more a "human" experience. In the past few years I've been fortunate enough to travel to many places around the world. While governments have many different characteristics, the folks are pretty much the same.


"we take care of our own and our borders are open."


Folks, we could use $6 from those of you who have not contributed. For those who can't, or shouldn't at this time - we've got you covered. For those of you who could, but choose not to contribute, for whatever reason, we've got you covered too. It's a community thing, and Sawmill Creek is a community.

Thanks for reading,

John

Way to go "Guys and Gals." When we get to $7,500 we'll have enough for our annual operating costs of $5,500 plus enough for a new server when we need it. Anything over that will allow upgrades to the system.

Those of you who have not contributed yet, please think about it, we can use your support. Those of you who can't, or shouldn't, at this time, don't worry, just keep contributing with your posts.

Thanks, you "Guys and Gals" are awsome!!:)
