Mr. Elder Hippie,
I'll not spend this moment with a question for your site,but rather to express my gratitude that you have a site. I fell upon your spot by chance,and it filled me with joy. There,in a hopelessly modern world, you grant the children wisdom and guidance, knowledge and well-earned experience. I will visit again and again, if only to see what more goodness you offer.
Thanks for taking time to "pass it along"...

Love,
Timmer

Thank you so much! It's great to hear this kind of feedback. We work very hard on the site to make it a rewarding experience for all who enter. Everyone who participates makes the site what it is!
