Guest guest Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Gloria, that's us. Please don't let the amount of e-mails overwhelm you. We're just a very extremely friendly bunch. Well, we have some members living very close to you, I'm sure they'll mention it in their responses, but anyway welcome and we're happy to have one more Northerner on our side. Watch out, this is a big issue, especially around winter and snowstorm time. Us Northerners send snowballs to hit our Southern members, especially those that have a tendency to show of with their weather forecasts. Now please watch out, some of the members treat this very seriously so you better watch out Welcome, and I do hope you have fun.
