...and for offering support to all the hard work that the activists among us do while the naysayers sulk and sullenly accept defeat against all the rules of history. Yes, Luka and others who think like him are entitled to their opinions, but it's necessary for those who have not given up hope to speak up and restore that hope to the community whenever someone suggests that we need to just accept things the way they are today and not bother to lift a hand to struggle for change. We SHOULD never agree to just accept things they way they are, because the cost of doing so would be too much for future generations of both MAA's and youths.

I'm glad to see you are on the board right now, my friend. Thank you also for offering me support in the thread where I once again mention my recent heartache...I will respond to the posts there, either to each one separately or in one general post, in a short time in case I get any more responses there. Thank you for everything, Trillion.
