A note regarding Jill's loss

Thank you to all who left kind words for Jill here and on other blogs. One of the truly wonderful things about the Internet is how you get to meet people online and become friends with them despite geographical differences. I feel that way about all of my blog mates, who with the exception of Dan I have not met in person. I did not post anything yesterday, a moment of silence if you will, in tribute to Jill's step-father and to mark her loss. Jill, you remain in our thoughts and prayers.
