I had to join my voice to the chorus of praise to you Rise'. You have laid out the foundations for the building of a wonderful community that continues to grow in beauty, humor, and excellence thanks to your great leadership and generous concern for each individual. 12 years is really a great number to celebrate, and I am glad that I have been blessed by this forum for many of those years. I salute her who managed to "hatch" these dozen years as she, our dear Rise', is truly "eggs-traordinary" and must be be great to put up with us for so long without becoming "cracked". You, Rise', are still as lovely inside and out if not more so. Bunches and bunches of thanks.

I got to thinking about having a forum for so long. 12 years ago, there were very few forums out there. Rise' , you are one of the pioneers of the forum world. Congratulations.
