• Even though I think R4 is being disingenuous, the note says: [quote]I am honored to be a witness to this weight being lifted off. You are an amazing, dynamic, compassionate, ‘with-it’ young man who will give the world a gift just by you being you offering your love and spirit. If people choose not to be comfortable with your honesty – their loss, my friend – their loss.
