Pat, that has been my approach overall for a while. The problem came in with, when I would sit at my computer, I wouldn't remember the specifics of what I would want to say...so I would head to the "Off Topic" section and pretty much only comment there. Bad idea!

I totally get what you are saying. I guess it's sometimes rare to be able to hear someone's music, enjoy it, have the opportunity to thank them for the experience, and not take the opportunity. It felt selfish. That's on me though. It's not like when I don't comment for extended periods of time anyone is sending me a PM saying "hey man, you haven't comment on my song or anything else in a while. What's up?" Maybe it's time to let that guilty feeling go. It's how I'm wired; but maybe it's time for a rewiring. lol

Don, what an amazingly thoughtful offer. Thank you for that! My fear would be the second you put postage on it and sent it; yours would break! lol Redundancy can be a great thing in such situations. Thank you again for the offer though. I'm stunned and amazed by it.

Again, for the record, I would NEVER allow for distracted driving. I get we all have it to a slight extent; but I'm very much against it. I drive too much and see too many instances of people thinking they are driving fine. They are certainly not! There is just of it. I also believe in leading by example to my kids.
