Beneath the rock that was under the basket that was covered by the blanket  :-[

Talk about a blast from the past, I see a lot of familiar names here, hi Bjorn.  Time to reacquaint myself with good conversion, rational thought, good critique, hopefully with a good dose of humor and joy thrown in.

With luck one or two of you folks might recognize me, if you do please don't warn the ones the don't.  For those of you who don't know me, then I am in for a real treat making new friends. 

Hopefully I will add to the group, I am sure that I will learn at least as much as I give in return.

ps. I really like the 48 hour "edit" limit, that is one of those rational things I will like for sure.

Welcome with or without a blanket to hide under :D

This forum is a collective undertaking and hopefully will benefit from synergy within the community. So far it it looks pretty good ...

Having a limited editing window is one way of enhancing rational behaviour. Removing the opportunity to discuss off-topic issues another.

Thanks, Bjorn.  Totally agree with all you say. 

Sure seems like a long time since the old days of DPR and NikonCafe, I'm just glad we are both still around to enjoy it!

Thanks, Frank, great advice.  I often find that I learn a lot myself simply from conversation, amazing want an open mind will do for you!

Thanks, Bruno.  I know what you mean, you run across the same folks often on the forums.  I sure hope some other wanker didn't steal my signature  :o

Thanks, Jorgen.  I have been using this nickname since I first started using the 'Net, way back in the early 1970's before Al Gore invented it, the 'Net that is.  Every now and then I run across a forum where someone else is using it, I think just to confuse me!
