It is still wild, but I repeat often, it is more The Lost Frontier, not the Last. Don't get me wrong, it is huge and wild, but that does not a frontier make--things have changed over the thirty years I've spent here. people's attitudes, what they think is proper behavior on the Last frontier has changed radically. But lets go back to the lead in statement, it's still the best place left. I suppose if I hadn't been on the Frontier when it was still that, I'd maybe not be so jaded- well, been working all day on this site so got to go to bed... To be continued...
