lol, thanks to all of you. sorry i didn't respond before now; i had school and work pretty much all day today. kinda honored to be in this position. as jackd said, i've been part of the community for about 4 years now, so this place is my safe haven. all i can do is my best to help keep the community growing strong and as fun as ever. but i'm going to need everybody's help, so hit me up with ideas for improvement, crap that annoys you or whatever. just glad to try and give back to the community what it's given to me over the years.
