I can respect that MILDMANNERED, I was once a very different man, and I make no excuses for those years. Things had to change, and there were many good people along the way who I owe for the work they put in, helping me see and understand a different world. Many of them are dead and gone, once in awhile I call their kids to and express not only my gratitude, but to pay honor to their work.
I do hold conservative views, I make many errors, and still a work in progress, even at my age today. I have many friends of all walks of life, a large and beautiful family, and I wake to walk in two very different worlds every day. My poor wife of 30+ years calls me a glorified bum! 
 But in the end, there is always a debt I owe, it's not monetary, but the investment of trust and honor that others have placed in me. Just because we may disagree, it isn't a reason to violate that honor, and treat you with any less respect personally.
Have a wonderful new day, Hope I see you again here!
