Good points, Rick.

I'm not usually the shy type if there's something that interests me, but I got a pretty good case of the shakes after I saw the response to my first posting here. I got royally jumped on -- or, at least, thought I was royally jumped on -- for responding to a posting that was a joke as tho' it was serious. Took me a couple of days of reading threads and getting a better feel for this place before I ventured in again, but I sure am glad I stuck it out.

So far, this site has made me laugh a lot, cry sometimes and feel like there really are a lot of people out there who love music as much as I do. Never mind the differences of opinion occasionally -- that's what makes it interesting. If you or Katlaughing, 'Spaw, Joe O., Sandy or Art or any of a whole lot of other 'catters dropped out of my world now, I'd feel a loss.
