❤️ DU

I love DU. I think at 190,000 posts over 24 years, think that’s obvious.

I’ve learned so much here. Funny, incredibly smart and insightful, DU, wise….and otherwise. Love you guys.

Changed my life. Thank you.

This is best I can do. Can’t make them scroll across your screen. DU doesn’t have the marquee feature anywhere like it did when EarlG wasn’t in charge 🥸


Oh, this ain’t free. Thank you Grovel Bot.


Yeah. This is where the name came from.

The Spirit of 1776. Thanks for all you do, have done, sacrificed, know and share to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

On Democracy.

“If you want to raise a crop for one year, plant corn. If you want to raise a crop for decades, plant trees. If you want to raise a crop for centuries, raise men. If you want to plant a crop for eternities, raise democracies.”

— Carl A Schenck

Mr. Schenck was born in 1868 in the town of Darmstadt, Germany and became a pioneering forestry educator in North America, known for his contributions as the forester for George W. Vanderbilt's Biltmore Estate, and the founder of the Biltmore Forest School, the first practical forestry school in the United States, in 1898, near Brevard, North Carolina.

I believe, if I think really hard, they were the first thing I noticed and got me to become a reader. After my brother died I had time to get on board but I swear it was those underpants that just cracked me up and pushed me to join. I mean really, how fun.

SO basically I am here because of you and stayed partly because of you and am happy to be here.

That is a big number! Thank you for them.
