12. I came late to computers though I used one for my job, but it was a closed system (no internets)

And I's always voted, mostly for Democrats, but it was 9/11 that woke me up. I was in my dentist's chair in Albany, NY when all hell broke loose. And I was forgotten (think I was there for X-Rays) and spent my time there watching the TV in the room, seeing that second plane hit the WTC over and over. I walked out of there scared witless, thought the world was about to end. And that's when I started paying attention and found DU in early 2003. I remember being devastated when George Bush* won in 2004, but what's happening now is a million times worse. Who could have imagined that Dick Cheney would be on our side??
