Inny, I really it, too, that you look back as having taken the risks you wanted, and maybe that's something I could give myself credit for and haven't.
Perna, I'm wondering when you say, "looking back, I would have worked at communicating harder" if you are stating that you want to have been someone else back then. Because didn't you communicate as effectively as you were able to at that point in time?
Yes, you are marvelous at communicating. I also think you do a good job of hitting in at key issues in some of the posts, and offering a pointed, pithy, reply. I wasn't sure what you meant about what were waiting for -- to do your best to communicate well? I think you do that. For what it's worth.
