Yewberry (nee tofunut) here.

Been here for a long while now, but have always kept a pretty low profile.

My best memories of DU are of when we pulled together. Remember during Katrina? Remember Andy?

We can be a force for good. I know, because we have been a force for good.

"My best memories of DU are of when we pulled together. Remember during Katrina? Remember Andy?"

Mine too! When one looks at the span of time DU has been around, there has been far more good than bad, way more, imo, although sometimes it is far too easy to focus on the 'bad' while forgetting the good. I know I have done that at times but DU always calls me back because of the overriding good.

"I've always kept a low profile".

I remember so much good from DU... even the sad times (Kephra, SapphireBlue, Andy). When things get too bad, I usually try to step away for a while until I can get my sunny good nature back.

And yes, any time I get down about the flap du jour on DU, I remember what it's like when we band together.
