Happy holidays b0b and many thanks yet again for making another year of the Steel guitar Forum available to the world. It's the first and last thing I do every day and it also fills the invaluable role of helping me avoid doing whatever it is I'm supossed to be doing while I just "check the forum for a minute".
How long has it been now, b0b ... 5 years; 6 years? Through flame wars, power failures, pornographic posts, terrorist attacks and cabinet drop you've provided an incredible service to the steel guitar community. And - after spending some time lurking on other bulletin boards I've come to appreciate the mastery with which you keep hundreds of people largely civil and focused on the topic at hand. Bravo.
THANKS!!<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Andy Volk on 23 December 2002 at 06:36 AM.]</p></FONT>

<SMALL>It's the first and last thing I do every day </SMALL>
it's actually the second thing I do everyday, but that doesn't make it any less important or enjoyable.
Hey Andy, we can continue complimenting Brad over here. I believe this is out of his jurisdiction. His locks won't work here..
Thanks to everyone who runs the forum, and thanks for putting up with me.

b0b,
I'd like to "echo" everything that everyone has said. If it hadn't've been for this forum,I wouldn't've met so many GREAT friends! I hope your sons,& grandsons do half as good a job runnin' it as you have. (I,especially,hope that I'm around to see them do it!
)I'd,also,like to thank Lynn Owsley,for "turnin' me on" to the forum.

We're wrapping up our 6th year of operation. Funny, I thought this would just be a little hobby board when I started it. I never expected it to blossom like this. It wasn't really planned or anything.
Thanks everyone for the well wishes. It's a great honor to serve you all. Thanks for making the Forum such a success.

Thanks bOb from New Zealand. I would never have made the effort to learn Steel Guitar but for this Forum. It has been instrumental in bringing PSG out of the closet and making the instrument far more accessible to the public and players alike. The Forum has been a great source for resources and especially knowledge. Steel players seem more willing to share their knowledge and experience without the petty jealousies that seem to afflict many other instruments. A Merry Christmas to all forumites and Steelers....IP
