... give your dog a bone! Sorry... couldn't help myself. Ahem. Anyway...

Regarding the "Artists against fracking" thread that got out of hand... and quickly at that:

Yeah, that one had to be removed as it did get a bit ugly, but we would like you all to remember that.. YES! .. this is a Vintage Drum Forum and we do try and keep it FOCUSED in that general area. Social commentary... politics... religion... all have their place and most certainly invite and deserve intelligent discussion!... just not here is all. Your understanding is of course greatly appreciated. THANKS!!

Yep, you're right, Tommy. You are an excellent moderator and a keen judge of human nature! I believe that we are VERY lucky to have you here.You are literate, intelligent and a true gentleman. You strive to let us iron out our own problems but, occasionally, we need to get back on track. Speaking for myself, I thank you , sir.

Respectfully,

Brian

TommyP I just have to say thank you for doing the job you do. It's often tiring and thankless job. We are all very lucky to have such a great moderator here such as yourself. So from me a BIG thank you for everything you do here. Clapping Happy2 I think Salty summed it up quite well.

I sincerely THANK YOU ALL for the comments! Truthfully, there is a LOT that goes on "behind the scenes" holding down a gig of this nature. Tireless? Thankless?, as FFR428 so succinctly put... absolutely!, but not without it's positives! We have always strived to "let the membership be", and have their say, but of course there are limits. I greatly appreciate that the vast majority of you guys recognize that! THANK YOU!! Now, regarding backbeatkeeper:

That's "SUPER DICTATOR" to you mister!
