Feeling thankful for this great community.
Hey all-

I was just going through some emails from 2013 (my first real experience with a "Gun Panic") and it reminded me of how awesome a community Sigforum is. The way members looked out for each other, the cordial and caring communications, fair dealing in the face of shortages, it's all there.

Extraordinary behavior in times that bring out the worst in most people and it is simply the norm, here.

Amazing.

So, thank you, Para, for making and maintaining this great forum!

And thanks to all of you people that come here and make it great. I am honored to be a part of it.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken
