In those early years I had people stop by the parking garage at my office very early in the morning or after hours so we could charge their air conditioner or other things that I was very happy to help people with.

We also had a big tech session in Mt. Vernon Texas in about 2007 that was wonderful. Not long after that, the forum began to get so caustic with baiting and insulting that I don’t remember visiting in person with anyone from here since.

I made acquaintance with some wonderful people through this forum as well as a few that I’m happy that I never had to be in the same room with.
