As a longtime reader of your blog i really, really love your level of decorum. we live in a largely angry world and i appreciate that you engage (at least in this forum) with a level head

Thanks, that's very kind of you to say. I appreciate YOU! :-)Honestly though y'all, the world is so exhausting already. If I can help people worry and stress a little bit less, I think that's a good thing. (And it helps me, too!)
