Greetings. As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches here in the United States, I think it is an appropriate time to give thanks to the people who have given so much of themselves, even if they have been unwittingly doing so. First and foremost, I want to extend a heartfelt thanks to all of my readers. Your support is greatly appreciated, your comments are a constant source of inspiration, and your points of view provide strong motivation for professional consideration and reassessment. Thank you!

Nor will I engage in character assassination or immature name-calling. We are all supposed to be adults here, but that particular memo has not been read and understood by certain people, in this case, Mr. Jimmy Church.  Mr. Church's comment reads as follows, and I quote: "Nobody gives a shit, William. People, critics, skeptics, who take cracks at anyone for trying to do research or look into it, a subject, ...
