[...] A while back I wrote about anonymous donors … and then, later - in my Ask the Expert section, I sent out a “message in a bottle” for Charles Foster of Clemson University. So, this morning when I opened my inbox I couldn’t believe it … there was Coach Foster, himself, posting a comment: Comments » Joan, I can’t believe that you are still using that info, and sharing it with your fans and readers. I’ve always believed in this concept, and I am still impressed that it meant this much to you.

Thanks, Alison. Actually, I could easily list a dozen more anonymous donors in my life, but I am told a good blog should only be one paragraph long! Your name sounds familiar. Have we ever crossed running paths?

You’re both lucky to have such influences in your life, and lucky that you’re wise enough to recognize their value. But I’m mostly just here to say that I found your blog last week - I’m surprised I didn’t know about it sooner - and I enjoyed reading the archives. I’m looking forward to reading more. Thanks for sharing!
