Thank you for this post Mon Capitan, it has helped me come to terms with my feelings.3 and a half years ago, I was looking for a political forum to start posting in. I checked out several, but decided on DP. What we see in this thread and in the thread memorializing cherokee is the reason I chose this place. The people. This is not just an internet forum. This is a community. The vets, those of us who post nearly every day, interact with each other, fight, laugh, and learn something new, gain a valuable camaraderie from being here; people become friends...REAL friends. I've learned to care about the folks here. Many others have learned the same lesson. Anyone who thinks that these are just bits, bytes, and bandwidth, hasn't opened up and hasn't allowed themselves to connect. DP is as real as people we hang out with in RL. The only difference is that when we get touched it's virtual, not physical. This distinction is on a horizontal plane, not on a vertical one. In other words, how people touch us in this plane of existence is not better or worse. It's just different and it can have the same meaning.
More than once I cried as I read the posts here in this thread. I have wiped my eyes and gathered myself and looked for words to express my feelings. I would thank and hug each of you if I could. I would hold you all and sit and share her story. Her life. I married Del if not in the legal sense 37+ years ago in NYC. She was then a fire raging out of control an activist as I had never seen. I would temper that. She spoke in streets and universities. She marched in 40 states. There was no tempering Del. She was unbridled passion for her causes.
I thank you all for your loving words. I thank you all for the spirit that had you share those words. I thank you for Del the Inferno that I nor anyone could temper.
May you all find joy in your life. May you all find that place that brings you goodness and peace.
Love Alice

It has been a year since last Inferno posted. I stopped by to remind us all that we can find the best of friends in forums that are closely knit. Inferno loved you all. I am certain that she still does.
Been two years. I wanted to remember you.
Hope you're growing in strength remembering Inferno.
Hugs.
