It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Yet another indicator of the quality of the product produced by very good people. A winner in many categories . To each of the editors , writers, proof readers , staff and advertisers thank you. To all of the Pond Boss family here on the Forum each of you get a gold star as you were part of the winning team !! Quite an accomplishment for a volunteer , no revenue outfit.

I'm gonna break a cardinal forum rule here and talk about the latest magazine contents (just a little) early. In the Q&A section Bob talks about when PB Mag started, subscriptions were $24/year. DD can confirm this (as he's been getting PB since it was chiseled in stone by a pointy-beaked bird) but I think it was like 16 or 24 pages then, in B&W of course.
Now the Mag runs about 64 pages, and a subscription is all of $32. That, Sirs and Madams, is a bargain. Try to think of everything else that has tripled or quadrupled in content, improved in quality, and only gone up a lousy 1/3 in price over the last 15 years. The only thing I could think of which exceeded that value enhancement is the computer technology that let's us share this wonderful website (thanks to PB for that, too).
So congratulations, Bob, but mostly, THANKS!

Congratulations Bob! You more than deserve it! I sure think this forum deserves more than a honorable mention.

Congratulations Bob!
But even though this publication and website are outstanding, I think you've only scratched the surface in reader circulation. The sky is the limit, and with your excellent stewardship Bob you're headed there. I look for at least a hundred thousand readers in the next few years.
