Hon,
i just wanted to say, if no one else wants to be the moderator, I would be happy
to.
Glad to hear from you Hon. You're one of my heros. We too enjoyed meeting you.
Are you coming back any time soon? Talk to you later.

Hon, wow! I've checked this group for the first time since... um... I
dunno, I don't stick around Yahoo much at all anymore either. I've
been hearing stories about you from Colin now and again. As for
active members, well, I'm not so sure any exist when I look about...

be looking at it now and again, I know I'm not, really...)
Anyway take care, good luck with the sky diving!
