Lets get into the specifics of your time Mr. Trotter. What are your ideas about appealing?

I'm not able to send you a typewriter or wire you money, but I am willing to transcribe you writ if you post it. Also, just curious, why do they make you BUY your court transcripts? Shouldn't that information be available to you if you're involved in it ?

Hey, I just transcribed your blog. Should be writing a speech for school, but your blog was a million times more interesting. Not sure if my fingers are up to typing anymore though..

But wow, you have a crazy, messed up story. But then again, isn't that just called life? You're amazingly strong through all of the injustice, and I really respect you for that.

I know you took the effort to write so much, and I'd love to reply to everything you said, but unfortunately 10 pages are a bit much for me... Hopefully this will suffice though?

Oh, and I'm interested in knowing... did you get released in early 2012? I suppose if you don't get this, that's a yes.

Wishing you the best though! Stay strong. You probably don't need that, but like you, I have weird thought process and usually write everything that comes to mind.

Looking forward to reading more of your blogs!

Thanks for writing! I finished your transcription. What you say is so true. As I was typing it, I re-read what you said about gift-envy and gift-protection and that completely applies to me. I've always thought that I'm an egomaniac by nature, but reading that made me a little comforted by the fact that others do those things too. Oh, and I loved your metaphor with the rainbows and orchestra... brilliant!

My question is whether doing the "right" thing in prison is really enough to turn their life around. Don't get me wrong, a life sentence for joy riding is ridiculous....but I feel that real rehabilitation should include making amends to ones past...not just building on ones future. It seems much easier to me to move past mistakes and hope to not repeat them than to face up to those mistakes and deal with the aftermath of my decisions. How many children follow in their parents footsteps to that same behavior? Too many. Are you doing the right things when dealing with those you victimized, hurt, or ignored as you do when reaching out to support strangers?

Hey Daniel. I've been missing hearing from you. Just know that as soon as possible I want to get you a letter. I hope all is well with you and that your classes and writings are coming along as you have wanted.So far all of this sounds really good and hope people are responding. Be well and know I sure do miss the conversation. Sorry for the delay. Please forgive me for that, it has not been intentional. D.
