    I know it got off track, and I don't think I'm the person who first wandered there. I just was rather shocked about the direction it went... from Christmas cookies to whatever. I'll just sign-off the thread by saying that I see nothing wrong with encouraging people to contribute something to our overseas military personnel and leave it at that.
