DU Community Help
Related: About this forumI've been looking for a forum like this for a long time.
Hello everyone,
I've only recently found this place and I really enjoy it. It's nice to be somewhere online where the truly demented don't seem to dominate every forum. I'd reached a point where I ignored all the user commentary because it was so vitriolic. I've only been here a few days, and I've already noted there are some of you with whom I am simpatico.
Peace,
CaliforniaPeggy

There's lots to see and participate in here. If you look up, you'll see a tab for Forums & Groups; click it and you'll see a complete listing of every category that we have here. It's not all political, all the time!
Enjoy!

(31,893 posts)Your username immediately caught my eye - Zardoz is one of my all-time favorite movies! I saw "Arthur Frain" in the list of new users, and I knew I wanted to get to know you.
I have to ask, since you have the state of Alaska as your avatar - do you live there?
I lived in Alaska for 6 years, in Willow, in the Mat-Su Borough. My oldest son stayed on after I left, and lives in Anchorage. If you live in Alaska, what part?
I very much look forward to seeing more of you on DU! At the risk of sounding weird, I'd like to be a friend - anyone who picks their username from Zardoz is golden in my book.
Feel free to DU mail me anytime if you have any questions about this place. I've been on DU since just a few months after its inception, so I've sort of seen it all. I really hope you'll stick around.
