    Default Ed, regarding today's shutdown, is there ...

    something we can do (or we shouldn't do) to help smooth the forum and avoid shutdowns.

    Don't know, my post was the last this morning and I feel kind of guilty.

    Default You Da Man ED!....

    My first thought when I couldn't get my homepage......ahem, here......to start-up this morning, was that Ed had gone out and spent his first paycheck on "goodies" for the board. I know it's going to be an appreciated improvement.

    So how's the job going? Sold anything yet?? I remember many moons ago when I was a salesman in a camera shop. It used to be fun to get people to spend their hard earned cash on things that I would suggest to them. The feeling of knowing that they were happy, they had new "toys" to play with, and I had made a sale and money for my company was great. Being able to talk people into buying things is an art that shouldn't be taken lightly.

    Good Luck and thanks for running this great place for us all....

    Taken out of context indeed

    It is an art to be able to help people along, amazing that it's an art but it is!
