Yes, totally.  Both of those issues concern me a great deal.

Yes, I do agree, sadly it's a very difficult line to draw in the sand.  As long
as human nature exists, limits will be push, regardless if there are hard and
set rules or not.  I have never felt the job either you or Todd has is easy, and
I have appreciated every effort made, especially the communication that has been
open to us.  For example here, I am not only please you took the effort to
respond, but I feel that my concerns have been listened to, and for that I am
grateful.

Well I do tend to be a bit too "dramatic at times"... wink.

Thanks, I really appreciate that.  I have struggled between biting my tongue,
and wanting to scream... its hard not to be passionate about something that is
important to us, (for many of us, Lugnet is like a second home) but also easy to
forget that we arent doing the work, nor paying the bills to keep this site up
and running.

Excellent news and I totally understanding life getting in the way, happens to
the best of us.

Understood.

Well Suz, just as I offered in person last year at BF, I am again offering any
support I can offer.  Drop me an email if there is anything I can do.

Thanks,
