Hi Kelly & everyone,

	It is unfortunate that much is said about flaming, and so forth, while
the help and encouragment found here, both on and off the list, seems
soon forgotten.

	About a year ago our family was in the middle of serious problems,
spiritual warfare from outside.  When it became too much for me I was
overwhelmed by the support and encouragement we received from list
members.

	With respect to the help we've received working with Linux, well I've
lost track of how many times the list has thrown us a life saver (not
the candy type :-)

	Ron T.
