I'll add my own thinkin' on this: I resent and resist the inherent implication that just because I/we don't post to any of the 'Do You Care' threads that I don't care. As Jeri says above, we find things by ourselves, we think, we mourn, we contribute - and even if we did not, it is not for any one poster to decide what and how I should feel about anything.

Several times in the past I have seen threads that say "I can't believe that Mudcatters are silent on this ... they would have expressed lots of opinions about it if the shoe, etc, etc..." And yet that person had not him/herself written about it before, either.

Enough already.
