Rayne: I don't have an email for you so I am putting this here.

I wanted to say just how much I enjoyed your comments on my post about Dana Perino and the talk radio hosts. It is really a pleasure to talk to someone who not only understands my views but helps me clarify and extend them in new ways.
Thank you.
