I have been a member for EONs! In the beginning, it didn't take ten minutes to read
and comment on all the posts for an entire day!!

I vividly remember when Villette joined! Sometimes there were days when, if it had not been for her cheerful, witty posts ... my day would not have had a single bright spot!! I believe that I can [because of lots of personal interaction both on the board and off] vouch for the fact that she is absolutely
not controversial but very caring, compassionate and hysterically funny!! Her heart is
always in the right place and for this reason, I have also seen her "baited" and drawn in by controversial "debates" while her posts are from the heart, they are either misunderstood or twisted to mean something entirely different!
Villette, we who know you already know that you aren't controversial but a very sincere, caring ... "nut" ... and I do mean that in a "good way"!! If anyone would judge you, perhaps they should get to know you first?! We love you!
