This is a serious subject. It is drawing some good early response. It is not the kind of subject you can write a definite final “thus saith the Lord” treatise on. I would like to be the leader of discussion rather than some arbitrator.

I was peacefully shopping at our local Wal-Mart. It is a joy to be in that particular store, although I normally hate the crowds at them elsewhere. In another town where I used to live there were 2 stores.

I see it in the same light as President Ford tripping on the steps of AF- 1 = brings him down to the "foot-in-mouth" disease of most of us. Those who speak publicly and the audience begins to snicker, immediately start to regret they ever said a word for idiots to criticize.
