Troy, I was told it does reactivate when you get a new comment, but not sure about commenting on your own......So now that you have a new comment and your own, you can see the difference. Let me know!

Hi Marina,
That is about the best I have heard. I agree with Ed, if only I were that quick--I can come up with really good ones, 30 minutes later. Thanks, love it.

Good Morning Troy-
That's perfect!
I can see the radio station going down for 'technical difficulties'......

She got what she deserved for taking pot shot at a member of our armed forces just trying to do a little good. Why do so many want to disrespect the very people we should be praising.
