You lack the "snark gene" that's so often dominant here on the 'Zone. Not only is there nothing wrong with that, there's everything right with it. *Don't change!*
(If you want to see the snark gene in action, look through some of my posts. Won't take long to find it.)
Trying to learn the "art of political discourse" at the 'Zone seems kinda like trying to learn surgery in a slaughterhouse. Besides, what you bring to us is wonderful and valuable and so very welcome. You have a valid, considered political viewpoint and you express it well. Anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to sell you something.
I would never even consider missing any of your posts. You say you're here to learn, which is great because I think we should all have that attitude. But I humbly submit that you may actually fit better into the teacher role than many of us, because you truly bring wisdom and grace to our community. (Admittedly, you may fit best into the role of "hot teacher," but a teacher nonetheless.)
Anyway, keep doing what you do, don't you dare think you're not *greatly* valued here, and thank you, thank you, thank you for considering me a friend.
