This is probably the best managed forum on the Internet.

Like many others here, I participate in several other Internet forums. The other forums always have lots of great advice, and lots of great people. But, none of the other forums have moderators like Pond Boss.

I felt welcome the first time I posted.

The PB moderators are identified -- not hidden behind some firewall without a name. All are very knowledgeable and active. All are courteous. But, by far, the best thing is that the PB moderators keep the occasional insults and potential flare-ups well under control -- in very short order, and tactfully. That, by itself, makes this a very unique site.

With the addition of one more well respected participant as a moderator, we are truly fortunate.

Thanks all. Thanks to Bob Lusk, and crew, for providing such a great place to visit and learn.
