Thanks to the group, and especially Randy and John D for the honors. The designation changed over a month ago. Took me more than a week to notice, according to Randy. I guess even I think my posts aren't worth reading.

Wow - I had not even noticed, some of them, either!

Congratulations Bill and Bob! You more than deserve this status for all the advice and help you have provided to your fellow 928 owners.

As to myself: I have been a lifetime member for almost a year. Sometimes I wonder, if that's such a good thing, as I will now have access to OT forever - and waste waaay too much time there.

Oh well, Hacker will have the same issue - and given his young age he will quite likely outlast me... Congrats to you, too!

OT is such a slippery slope. I stay away unless someone posts a link to particular thread. It looks a lot like online heroin. Go ahead and try it. All your friends are doing it. You can quit whenever you want-- it's easy, trust me.

No joke! Seriously, OT is good and bad. It can waste a ton of time but there is a wealth of information that you wouldn't easily find elsewhere.

Nice to see some of the generous contributors get recognition, good job gals/guys
