Reply #31: Same here, after the 2000 election

[Mabus]

Before the election I found my way to some list-serves networking with other Gore supporters (loved him since '88). After the election and before the Supreme Court made its ruling those list-serves were my life line to sanity. It was during that time that I noticed several others on the lists referred to DU and quoted some pretty good stuff. I followed the link and got hooked. It was the only way I felt in touch with the emerging reality based community. After many months of lurking, often because I felt so naive about politics and there seemed to be so many knowledgeable people here, I finally registered.

Thank you DU for being here to build a real community and a better tomorrow.
