Stick, a couple of observations...
1. Even your "time" is ultimately scarce and "limited" there in Paradise!!!
2. Even you have had strong opinions on optics, platforms, etc., "learned" , and moved on to new "things." That will likely continue, as will your position in the sand so to speak!!!
3. You will continue to "teach" others in your own unique way... a benefit to many of us. Same goes for some of your protagonists! The "truth" is a slippery, personal, and evasive thing.
Thanks for your effort to teach... and entertain! Serious BUT still LAUGHING a little bit, too, at ALL of us!!! I hope you can laugh, too! I think you do.
