Hi John!
 Glad to see all is harmonious with you two. As it should be this time of 
year, when most are thinking good things about everyone, exchanging gifts and 
renewing relationships. friendships and those we share life with on a day to 
day basis. Let me take this opportunity to thank all of you that particapate 
in this echo, despite the failings of store and forward mail (which has me 
posting this message on another BBS to get it out in real time), we have one 
heck of a great bunch of people in here, still. I have just started running 
into some of the folks that used to be here but for some reason can't get 
here any longer and now are strong Internet USENET echo followers that have 
said hello to me and to all of you.
For 1997, I'm hoping to  getting this echo available through the Fidonet 
backbone and ported to a USENET group, so that perhaps we can stay in touch 
even if we can't all see messages on a Fido BBS, and so that those that have 
met similar fates as David Light and others can still talk to the "bunch of 
regulars" that have been with us all of this time.
 In the meantime, I want to thank all of you for making this echo one of the 
friendlest and informative echos/conferences/newsgroups on this or any other 
network. It's the people that contribute their knowledge,  expertise, and 
musical abilities that make this echo such a joy to moderate (mostly with no 
moderaton needed), and contiunally on topic/focus and almost always 
everything said is credible and facts that you can trust. A  rarity on most
networks.
 Thank you all,
 Merry Christmas and Happy New Years
