Finally figured it out.
I didn't know until last week that I could start a topic. I've actually been registered here since 2004, so I'm a slow learner. I've come to DU for info and comfort. Both are needed so much in these waning days of this campaign.
For some reason, this particular election has caused me to really appreciate this place more than ever before. I had to at least say this publicly. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the thoughtful, intelligent, fun, provocative, and sometimes fearful threads. We are in this together and that has me feeling good. Sometimes it seems too huge to embrace, but I take comfort in numbers today. I need a rock, and this is the place.
Thank you so much everyone here.

And your kind words are appreciated - DU can be tons of fun! Enjoy yourself! 
A belated welcome to DU!
And mostly I take information found here and spread it around. Lately though I've posted more because of the fever pitch of the election.
It's my go-to place.
