I'm so sorry Jeff.

Glad you are safe Dennis. Pictures out of the Asheville area are devastating.

Was there perhaps a trampoline nearby? 😆

Same.

Miss Allie! I was trying to remember her name. I met her briefly at a TARCon one year. I lived for those recaps. "My ox is BROKEN!!"

TWoP was my fave. I, a huge introvert, even went to a TAR finale event one year. It was such a great site with a great community of writers and posters.

I call them f#$%er bugs. I know they are beneficial but I HATE them. And I'm someone who will let spiders happily live in the corner of my shower.

I tried to avoid just my favorites, though some of those certainly count towards that list 😊

Specifically related to Picrad I would rec 'Q Who,' 'Best of Both Worlds,' 'Remember Me', 'Measure of a Man,' 'The Drumhead', 'I Borg', 'Time's Arrow', 'Tapestry','The Offspring'. 'Brothers,' 'Birthright',, and 'Inheritence.'

The statistics that were cited on their site, assuming it's the same org, were in line with what I know about direct mail fundraising (8 yrs in that biz). Generally v small successful responses but due to volume a noticeable and real impact. In a tight election even a single vote matters.
