Kudos to the moderators

You guys are doing an excellent job around here, absolutely not over-zealous and giving us a lot of liberty but you do step in when necessary. I would argue this is one of the most well-moderated watch forums out there.

You have my respect and admiration!

Ditto. Well said. Compared to a few other watch sites I have been on, this is one where most people treat each other with respect. Add to that the wealth of information and the camaraderie here and we have the formula for success.

Obviously kidding guys, thank you for your time and effort and the level headed approach to running this website, and especially kudos to Steve for its direction.

Knowing what goes on behind the scenes it only serves to re-enforce my view.

Aside from policing this site, thanks for being so helpful in answering our questions too.

Not sucking up, just giving credit where credit is due.

Yes thank you to all the moderators and all the members too

It is definitely a collaborative effort.

I would be wrong to think I never make mistakes, its a continual learning process but it is great to be here and I hope we can make it a better place for you and for me (someone famous sung that once )

Mike, I apologize. You will always be my #1 vintage Sub guru. Your name just didn't pop into my mind because you're usually such a laid back guy.


So, how's that for back pedalling?
