Thanks, OT. That’s an excellent story about Mr. Rowan. He is a superb example of American ingenuity, hard work, success, and generosity. He is the absolute antithesis of all the Commiecrats running for POTUS. For some reason (probably pure power lust) none of them can grasp the wonders of free markets, capitalism, and how the lure of great rewards motivates men and women to achieve great things and then give away so much of their fortune.

It was sad to read he and his wife lost BOTH of their sons to muscular dystrophy in their twenties. What a horrific tragedy.
