Im glad everyone likes it here. We have tried our best to make it a community everyone enjoys and can be proud of and say that they are a part of. But truly, its all of you that make this the place it is. Without all of you there would be no community. Without all of you being so helpful, forgiving, thoughtful and courteous, this would be just another forum much like others.

So I must say to all of you thank you for taking a personal stake in this community, for caring enough to say hey something is wrong here and sending messages to have it looked at or for the welcome all of you give to new members and for being willing to answer the questions that are often repeated. Yeah, it would be great if everyone used the search feature, but sometimes its just easier to post the question and tap into the expertise here. I see a great number of people here do use the search and thats a really good thing, but its equally great when the members here answer a question even knowing the answer could probably be found using search. Im as guilty of just posting up a question as any before searching.

My goal for this year is to add a lot more technical type information to the site. Stuff that isnt always easily found elsewhere. Im also going to try and get more How To's up on the site, well Chris has been doing all the work getting it into the How To section, but Im going to try and get more content put up, How Tos that arent the mainstream stuff that everyone finds.

I'll be out of debt in a few months and hopefully that will free up some play money for doing a few things Ive had in my mind for a while now. Once all the debt has been cleared Im going to be spending time this year finding a house, or if possible building one, and I have every intention of doing all I can to make sure I have space and tools to do things that up to this point have been difficult to carry out where we are at now.

Anyway, thanks again for everyone here that makes this truly such a great place to be. You all should be very proud of yourselves. YOU are what makes this place stand out.
