Hello everyone! My name is Laura and I've been reading the list for probably about a month now, but I haven't gotten around to sending in a "hello" yet. That fiend Time has been annoying me. But here I am. I wanted to let you all know how much I enjoy the conversations that go on here. It is very interesting to me to hear people talk about Salinger's ideas and many other wonderful ones like reading Thoreau in the car! I have to shove off now! Take care! -Laura L. Thayer
