David,

This really hurts. I am feeling SO badly for you. But I understand your need to get away.

I have never met a person with your dedication to publc service. You have been a reliable source of inspiration to Free-DC and other organizations.

However, having said all that, you know where I live. You have my phone number. You are welcome to visit me at any time, for any length of time.

Hang in there friend.
