Peter:

I felt compelled to write that about my family in the hopes of showing two things:

01) First, I hope that it helps anyone who is interested to know more about why I think and act they way I do --- radical thinking comes from having had a radical experience.

02) Second, I hope that people think about what's important (L-O- V-E) and not just making sure that at all times a mommy and a daddy are present.

I had a father, a mother, and four step-mothers.

However, all I really would have wanted was two parents that loved me and my half-brother and my half-sister.

Thanks for understanding, Peter.
