Don't get me wrong, I like Jim.  He's always supported me in here and even
sent me a CD of his entire MM database.  It was just off-putting to me when
he said there were no more "engaging" conversations in the echo.  Sometimes
you have to start conversation to enjoy it...in any case, I'm here and not
planning on leaving unless something terrible happens.

I just feel bad since the echo has lost so many people recently due to death
and other unavoidable circumstances that someone would up and leave.  I
guess my having nearly died three times last year has made me acutely aware
of some things.
