What in the world? I don't post much but have enjoyed this list for a long
time. I was befuddled with the Vinson's message earlier today - it seemed
odd but I tend to assume the best if I have no other info. But now reading
Ann's response it sounds like my assumption was wrong. :(

I get such warmth and goodness from this list it's hard to imagine why
anyone would want to be vindictive here.
