Thanks Jim.
You guys are so formal. Is there a welcome dinner or other event to go along with the post?
Or do we all just meet at the Three Penny Tavern in Montpelier for a beer?

Thanks Gerry, you've already made me feel very welcome. You're one of the reasons I reached into my wallet and paid my dues.
But I do have a question. I see you have over 100,000 posts - do you live here full time?

Thanks Ken. Daughter lives in MA so I can't say anything too bad, plus I ride down that way quite often on the motorcycle (western MA).

About as formal as this woodchuck gets. I would rather go to corner stone in Barre. If you haven't been there yet you should. Good food

I paid my dues because I value the information made freely available here. I also value the warm welcome and comaradarie from folks here. Having run a forum for a while I know they cost money to keep current and maintained. So if I value the friendship and the information then the $20 is pretty cheap in my book. I'll get that much value just from a few posts on things to do or not do with my new truck. Guess I'm old school - want to pay my own way and not take a free ride on the backs of others. Maybe its my military background, maybe its age. Maybe its both. If more in our society would do the same we'd all be a lot better off. I'll get off my soapbox now.
