OT - Veteran's Day Message for those served and their families
I am posting this a day early because I want to make sure it gets out in plenty of time since things have been rather chaotic this year. I hope you all have a peaceful and safe Veteran's Day tomorrow.
**
Veteran's day message for Nov 11, 2022.
Hello everyone,
Today is Veteran's Day in America and has also been known as Armistice Day in America and Europe for over 100 years now. This is the day that we, the people of America, remember and honor those who have stood up and put their lives at risk to protect us all from those who would harm or kill us every day that they served.
Those groups of people I include in the groups worthy of the greatest honors for standing in defense of this country and other nations as well are the members of all branches the Military (the Army, the Air Force, the Space Force, the Navy and the Marines) , the National Guard for each state, as well as the Police, Firemen and members of the EMS.
All of you who have served or are currently serving to me are worthy of the highest respect, because I KNOW that every day you put your uniform on and went about doing your duty, you willingly putting your lives at risk to keep all of us safe and I am VERY thankful to all of you for being willing to do so.
If you have served and retired from your former duty as a Protector of us all, please know that you have my deepest gratitude and thanks for what you have done for us.. If you are still serving in the reserves I also thank you for being willing to continue do what is needed to keep us all safe in such dangerous times.
Also if those of you reading this message have any family members who have served or are currently serving in the Military, the National Guard, or Law Enforcement/Emergency Services, please tell them that I, Connie Green, thank them for keeping us all safe and protected.
I also ask God by whatever name you may call him or her to please keep you, your friends, and family members all safe as you go about your duties. And after they leave the service the service they are working in. I pray that he/she keeps them safe and well and gives you all a good and happy life. I also KNOW that when those of you who have served do pass on to the afterlife aka Heaven, you will have a place of honor there because you chose to stand up in our defense and God will remember and honor you for that.
I am also including this prayer I found for Veteran's Day. May you be blessed by it:
Dear Lord,
Today we honor our veterans, worthy men and women who gave their best when they were called upon to serve and protect their country.
We pray that you will bless them for their unselfish service in the continual struggle to preserve our freedoms, our safety, and our country's heritage, for all of us.
Bless them abundantly for the hardships they faced, for the sacrifices they made for their many different contributions to America's victories over tyranny and oppression.
We respect them. We thank them. We honor them. We are proud of them. We pray that you will watch over these special people and bless them with peace and happiness.
Amen

Genius Fratris by alonelysock
Summary:
Only two people know what happened the night John Potter
became the Boy-Who-Lived: Lord Voldemort and Harry Potter. And
neither of them are talking.
Here harry and his little brother, no twins here, grow up with
James having Sirius and Remus around as supportive uncle figures.
Because of the traumatic event though, for a while, harry does
not talk, still has problems when he gets stressed.
What makes this work well is how, because of the age difference,
harry has a chance to become his own person, with a supportive
over protective family, making friends from all houses...he is in
Cedric's year here. We get better drawn Slytherings, actually
better drawn everyone in that year, Katie bell for example. We
have younger brother in book Harry's year, with book Harry's
situations..or sort of. None of this arrogant evil brother stuff,
no Dursley's at all either..Harry's struggles are different, as
are his successes. Give it a chapter or two, I feel some here
will be quite pleased.
Its at ao3.
Even the new character creations are wonderfully done.

Then it does not fit comparatively speaking to this story at all.
One factor is the lack of bashing, its not needed here.
Nor is the he must be dark because he is different element.

I used to do that in the '90s before I had dial-up at home. However I didn't save from fanfiction.net in those days. IIRC ff.net didn't get started until 1998 and I got dial-up around then.
In any case, before FF.net people used to post on their own private web pages, with a few fan sites hosting multiple authors. I think FF.net was the first to let users upload their own stuff.
However, those private websites, or most archive sites that required the authors to e-mail the webmaster for posting the fics had the chapters easily downloaded from an index page.
I'd just use that.

Yup. It's why I've been archiving for 20 years. It's a fun
project!!! Frustrating lately with the Fanfiction net stuff, but I'm
so happy a few people are working on downloaders still. I remember
the days of grabbing by hand. Each chapter, putting it all together
in notepad. Actually I used to use word. Yikes. And a Braille Note!

Whatever the truth, IMNSHO,
it is still a good idea to keep your own, local copy
