Bill is still trying to figure out why so many are seemingly incapable of following complex issues...and prefer disinformation.
About Me

People say I'm:
-
Describe Yourself:I'm a retired Foreign Service Officer with the U.S. Information Agency, which, thanks to the late, unlamented Jesse Helms, was dismembered after the Cold War and put into the State Dept. I'm in pretty good shape (walked across England in '06), but despite living in a walker's city (NY) am beginning to lose my edge! I have a good sense of humor, in a kind of editorial vein, and like a good laugh in an era where there's not enough to laugh about.

On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:some good conversations, devoid of name-calling and with the ability to recognize that there are other points of view.

Edward W., Aug 18, 2009, 4:15AM EDTMany of us prefer disinformation to following complex issues? How true!

Sheryl O., Dec 23, 2008, 2:28PM ESTBill! Nice to see you around, even for a short time. I wanted to wish you Happy Holidays and a safe, fun trip to Spain! How exciting. And warm. :-) I could use some of that now. My daughter flew up from Atlanta last Friday (well, it turned into Sat with delays) and has been having fun playing in and shoveling snow. It's fun when you can enjoy it for a short time, then leave it.
Best to you and your family - Sheryl -

Carol P., Aug 12, 2008, 4:40PM EDTYes, and it is still horrible, every day I wake up without him is horrible. No parent shold outlive their child. It just should not happen.

Carol P., Aug 12, 2008, 1:46PM EDTThank you Bill for the link. I will definitely look at it. Yes I know lots of people with PTSD, not military related. I lost my only child to suicide almost 6 years ago. He was only 16. I am a member of several online support groups, we all suffer from PTSD. I witnessed my son's suicide, so I will forever be plagued with the horrible disorder. I am trying to help all I can. Thank you for your input. I will share with the group.
