3. I think it is, but obviously there are others who would disagree
There are a lot of nice people here though, in all fairness.

6. I still personally think that you get a heart when you donate
since the timing of my two coincided exactly with my donations

7. It Feels Good Don't It? I Had A Couple Show Up And It Really Made Me Feel
good. Just a little heart on a message board, and it lit me up inside. I was thinking "wooohooo!! Not everybody thinks I'm just a prick!" LOL

I think this was a brilliant idea by Skinner. I could only imagine how many others have felt that same true sense of inner joy inside with each heart they get. It's the simple things sometimes, ya know? :)

8. Hey, you've got more hearts than I do!
What's your secret? Aftershave? Toothpaste? Bikini wax?

I'm not jealous, not at all, why do you ask?

:grr:

9. It's a connection
I've given hearts to people I don't know because I liked reading their posts. It's a way of saying that I'm glad you're part of this community. I've done this mostly for people who don't already have one.

:) :) :) :) :)

10. Hey, Panader!
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth!!! If I had any more hearts, I'd give you one.

11. If people like what you post, they contribute
I feel very appreciated because not only did two people send me valentines, someone paid for my menbership during the last fund drive. It's greatly appreciated because I've been out of work since mid 2003 and was getting awfully broke.

So I'm grateful, and when the dust settles and the estate is cleared, I'll be paying it forward.

12. you don't have to actually know anyone, i haven't met one DU'er
in person but i many DU'ers are great and very informed people, you'd be amazed the info you can get here. I sent a heart to a poster that i ask questions to all the time, he's my "go to" legal guy.

15. I went through and looked to give my hearts to people who had none
some people I would have given them to, because I appreciate what they do, like liveoaktx and the great videos, or momcat and her perseverance on important issues, had several - so I spread the love out as best I could. Maybe that is what happened to you!
