Happy Birthday Armorama! I can't think of life on the net, at the bench or at the Hobby Lobby without ya's!
And thank you Jim for providing a home for all the wayward modelers!
Cheers and beers!

One of the serious problems in planning against Canadian doctrine is that the Canadians do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligations to follow their doctrine.

Happy Birthday! This site is great because of the people that run it and the people who contribute so freely of their valuable hobby time to do the reviews, write the articles and participate in the forums. And thanks for giving me the opportunity to contribute and pay back some of what others have given so freely to me!

I would like to formally thank everyone involved. Some of the people on this site are the best people I have never met. Great place to hang out. I registered in October 16th of 2002 so I have seen the site grow and what keeps it running, from my chair here, is the willingness of folks to help out. Whether that involves submitting a review or just answering questions in the forums from new people in a civil manner. It all matters.
Thanks again and happy birthday Big A.

Thanks guys! It has been both a challenge and a wonderful personal reward in helping make this community/resource. A big hand should go out to all our staff members past and present for without their tireless efforts the site(s) would not be where they are today. And of course all the active members as well.
And thanks Rick for posting this. It reminded me to put up the special logo!

Cheers,
