                  • A Friday Hello to everyone and a topic was under discussion and I chose to make a statement . There is no topic that I can imagine that is inappropriate, off limits, or censored for some other reason. Respect for others is necessary on the SC website and I abide by that, but we are adults not children. I have grown older on this site and I…
