[nagdu] Sarcasm: NAGDU List

[Lyn Gwizdak]

Whether you are a guide dog user, wanting to be a guide dog user, former 
guide dog user, puppy raiser, plain ole dog lover, trainers - whatever, you 
are OK in my book!  I enjoy all of us who are interested in the use of dogs 
as guides or ither service animal user.  All are welcome here!

And Marion and the moderators do a great job to provide something like this 
list.  Thanks guys.

Lyn and Landon
