thank you for your replies.

you both are far more eloquent at expressing your feelings tham i am. perhaps that's part of why i'm not heard. i realize many feel the same/worse than i do. i was just hoping to have my words/feelings heard.

Julie not to worry. i noticed that someone else has since requested for the forum i asked for. i'm sure thier request will be heard.

i hope you all have better days ahead

bye,
