Hello Dennis,
You were saying...

We're doing the best that we can, but it's really difficult to force 
ourselves out of bed each morning and get ready to face a new day.  We
never what each day will bring, but it doesn't appear (at least yet)
that we are any closer to bringing our daughter home.

I like your advice and it makes a lot of sense.    I'll remember to 
use the word *flaming* in the future.  Anyway, I do hope I made my point
on this score.  Luckily, it wasn't a personal attack, just a general 
flaming of a certain sex.  
Thank you for responding!  I do appreciate it.  :)   BTW, I would look 
forward to hearing from you on the VOCAL echo.  Hopefully it will be on 
the FidoNet Backbone soon.  I am the moderator for that one, and I will be
there as needed!   VOCAL stands for Victims Of Child Abuse Legislation.
I will be posting info on it in a day or so!  I hope you'll request it.
