				A big thank you!
	
			 
             
			
		
		
		
		I would just like to register my gratitude to all of the people in this group who have been so helpful to me in getting into the game.  I've received good advice from many of you -- too many to list --  but special thanks to Imperator Fyron.  Many times I have posted a naive question, and received helpful advice within minutes!  And, people have been quite patient, even when answering questions that have been asked and answered before. 
Also, I think I can safely speak for the whole community when I say that Geoshmo has really made this game much better than it would otherwise be, with the creation of PBW.  And, he is soooo attentive and helpful.  Whenever I have asked a question, either here or on the PBW forum, he has responded helpfully, often within minutes. 
 
Thank you all.         What a terrific group of people. 
Merry

		No, a lawyer for banking firms using a computer while on T.V. that tells you to trust him.

		Thank you for your kind words Merry. But I didn't create PBW. Admiral did. I merely maintain it, and I couldn't do it alone. The team of admins: 
 
The Admiral 
LazarusLong42 
Gimboid 
capnq 
georgig 
 
And the support from the entire community makes the work we do possible.
