As usual, Glorko says what was on my mind in fewer and better words than I.
would have used.  (Makes you wonder why we had to flee Zoltron, barely
escaping with our yibits!)  I base my opinion of someone on how they live
their lives, not what higher power they say they believe or don't believe
in.  What they believe in is between them and the higher power (or
completely internal if they are atheists). I don't care.  How they live out
those beliefs is what actually affects me and other people.  That I do care
about.

Everyone in the Groop seems really nice over the Internet and all the Groop
that I have met in person have been really great folks!  One of the cool
things about the Groop is that I feel like I have friends literally all over
the world!   Look at Lia; she travels half-way around the world, but she had
at least two Groo friends to connect with in big bad NYC!  And all of us
goofy, diverse folks are brought together by a goofy cartoon character
created by two of the nicest guys on the planet. (See what I mean about
Glorko and fewer words?)  Anyway, maybe if everyone read Groo we'd have
world peace.  Wouldn't that be the ultimate irony?

Ramblingly Yours, -Gary G.

PS  And if anyone ever needs to make a pit stop near exit #99 on I-5 in
Washington, remember, my bathroom is your bathroom.
