I would like to thank everyone for their thoughtful, sincere, and respectful comments. It just reinforces for me what I already knew - this type of heartfelt communication is so much more powerful and persuasive in gaining understanding of others viewpoints than finger-pointing and confrontation.

WELL DONE BORDERERS!!!
Agreed! I've been able to read the last few pages, and not feel like I want to tear my hair out. LOL. Also, I definitely have a little more compassion for the other side. Yes, we disagree about the band continuing, but we're all united in loving the band, so hopefully that will give us enough common ground to keep things civil, and continue to be a little more tolerant of each others' views!
