*Blushes*
Thank you all for the kind words. I'm not sure how respond as I find myself sort of ill equipped to deal with recognition of this nature.
"On many internet forums, only around 1% of users create new posts, while 9% reply and 90% are lurkers that don't contribute to the discussion. When no users reply, the original poster has no way of knowing what lurkers think of their contribution"
Alexa refers to the well known participation rule of 90/9/1. It's odd that it should be brought up here as it is also mentioned in a place I go to that is very private in nature on the net but populated by good folk, just as is found here.
See the 90-9-1 rule. What if we could get rid of the 90%, and turn that remaining 10% into a 100% ? That's exactly what we're trying to do here.
This is from the FAQs but sadly I may not link to it because the site would deny access to the link.

I would like to grab the moment here to thank each and everyone of you. It's rare today to find such a combo of fantastic, well informed people, at one site. It's been an absolute pleasure to be here. My time grows short and I do hope to return sometime soon. No one can accurately predict the future continuously so time will tell how things are.
Thank you all for providing such welcoming and fertile ground.
