Thank you Carol. I am in total agreement with your comments. We need to
be able to communicate freely and share information, in order to pursue
clues. We need to feel safe to do so. We do not all always agree, but
we are all searching for answers, and the search for the truth requires
open mindedness. Thanks to all of you who keep the information flowing
on this Lyons List!
