One more comment. Will this experience destroy us? Or will it make us
stronger?

The choice is nobody's but ours.

I apologize for being flip here, but I think there's something to this. The
news of the settlement has taken a crisis and turned it into an
opportunity. Let's not turn it back into a crisis.

Peace all around,
Detlef

ofer hronrade         hyran scolde,
gomban gyldan.         þæt wæs god cyning!
