It wasn't till Catspaw got ill the previous time that I began to realise how much the folks here care about each other, and how much I did too. It's the nearest thing on the Net to meeting people face to face that I've come across, and much more personal than other discussion forums I've been on.

and at the Getaway, we will 'probably' have Dick G., Max, Joe Offer and 2 or 3 'joeclones', and the two people who sat knee to knee with song notebooks(Susan of DT & Dennis Cook), comparing versions and wondering if there wasn't a better way...*ahhh...let's put them on computer disks and trade!*

as well as MANY other posters of fame & infamy...(we aim to set a record for # of 'catters at one gathering...currently 58, I think)

As much as I hate technology, and as deeply suspicious of this gadget as I am, the computer's invention, development and ubiquity is justified by this single use. My life would be considerably poorer without it.

Yep, last Saturday (the 16th) marked my 2-year anniversary of being here. Although I'm not here as much as I used to, as I find myself growing away from a lot of the opinions expressed here. I've found folks my own age who can appreciate all kinds of music. But the people here at Mudcat are really nice and helpful and caring. You can always be sure to get an answer to any question you have...often times within 5 minutes. Live long and prosper.

You'll get no argument from me. As far as I'm concerned, Mudcat is the best place on the net. And that's because of the people who come here, yourselves included.

Hear Hear, as they used to say. Two or three weeks only, but I have learned a great deal in that time.

I've been on the Mudcat for a couple of years now and would just like to say to all those who run it, contribute to it, and are a part of the Mudcat Community (for that is what it is) that I don't think I've come across a more pleasant mix of people. I've just been reading a thread on Arthur McBride, the replies to that thread are typical of what I have come to expect: witty, informed, controversial, funny. OK some contributions are infuriating, but that only fuels the discussions that we take part in or just read.

Thanks.

John
