I did not know Egg has left the list, I may not always
agreed wth her but she always seemed to have a pulse

 I am one of those always green eyed optimists and I
am with you on the name calling in that it makes the
list boring and makes the discussions sink to Jr High
bus ride levels. 

Egg please come back.

Go C's
