I have turned the corner.

It was a strange thing. A couple of months ago, I ran into the "dark side" of the BoM. I had always been proud of my participation in the discussions in "The Alleys". But, then one day, I apparantly upset some of the more liberal posters. To my horror, they were giving me negative reputation. I admit, afterwards I behaved like a middle schooler. I was angry, and I was disappointed in the community. Life got in the way and I disappeared...
