I apologize, as there was no intent to put words in your mouth. My post was in response to your comment of looking for other sources rather than WND. That’s certainly understandable, given some of what they have put out there.

I hadn’t gotten in on the start of the thread and was responding to posts as I was reading through the thread and hadn’t gotten as far as your post stating you would not be supporting SA any longer. Again, my apologies, and am glad the ALL website was helpful.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.
