Reckon the keys to the forum are being turned over sometime soon and this place will be under new management.
Thinking that we all owe Mark a huge heaping of gratitude for bringing this forum to life and keeping it up and running for well over a decade. Had he not created this forum, maybe many us would have found each other elsewhere (I know many already cross pollinate elsewhere) but this forum has created a community that I have found no where else.
Tommy may come in now with some new ideas and throw a fresh coat of paint on the place, but Mark provided the foundation and built us all a nice place to hang out.
This place has (long ago) become a family with which we can all share knowledge, experiences, opinions and dreams. We share and open up our lives here. Most of us have developed lasting friendships with whom we choose and feel completely at ease with folks we have never, and may never, even meet. We go through good times and some not so good, but we are here for each other as needed or desired. Family.
So thank you Mark. Thank you for the years and years you have invested here and for doing such a fine job of keeping the old girl running smoothly.
I wish you all the best in your new adventures and smooth sailing in whatever directions you care to choose.
I know you aren't going to just disappear never to be heard from again, but before you hand over the reins - thank you.
