Billie, Snow Bunny...........y'all have done yeoman's work putting this together, and Billie, I KNOW how frustrating and difficult this must have been, but God bless ya for it.
In fact, I'll tell you something else. I've had a tradition going for the last couple of years here on FR wherein I have had veterans "check in", if you will. I won't do it this year, for you've more than covered that duty. I'll put the links here, though, out of respect for all those who responded:
Salute to FReeper Veterans; Check in!, 11/11/1999
Salute to FReeper Veterans; Check in!, 11/13/2000
THIS will be 2001's "Check in!" thread, if that's ok with you, and I'll ask y'all to help make FReeper Veterans aware of that. Again, God bless.
