H.S. That is the most direct response I have seen: "I promised a rainbow"

Note that "promised" is past tense. If he didn't have the rainbow in hand, I think he would have said "promise". Of course, that's just my opinion.

Thanks for sharing this very encouraging response, and thanks to Doc for his continued efforts to change the world for the better!
