So, sorry for the late reply, and YAY to you for delurking. I delurked in fits and starts, and each time was nerve-racking.

I would encourage you to take whatever chances you have to go as far as you want – and I speak as someone who spent his teens and his twenties in denial that he could have these strange interests, his thirties and forties becoming through magazines a Ernesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974379782721547413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3771730470771017640.post-28066759825440618892010-03-24T10:46:59.667+00:002010-03-24T10:46:59.667+00:00You are very sweet, Indy.

It seems natural that it will lead to real life friendships, whether they're limited to on-line ones because of distances (the lack of a u in honored makes me think you, like me, live an ocean away from the rest of these folks!)
