Countable CEO: 'I'm Thankful for You'

Dear Countable Friends—
Recently, I was asked at a meeting, “What are you thankful for?” At the Thanksgiving table, the question starts the stomach grumbling. But this question gave me no indigestion—I knew the answer, and said it immediately:
“Our users.”
What am I thankful for? I’m thankful for you.
Thank you for your opinions, your questions, your comments, your activism. Thank you for making the not-always-easy effort to stay informed—and for fighting that urge to disengage from our increasingly-polarized political environment. Thank you for listening to new perspectives, and for weighing in with the openness and civility that our democracy desperately needs. You’re building civic awareness and responsibility into your daily lives, one action at a time. And that's the best holiday tradition of all.
On behalf of me, democracy, and America: thank you. You are the antacid settling the stomach of this great nation.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Bart
