I actually ran into a couple of Forum members this past weekend.

This is why I have literally used my name for the past 25 years on these and like forums. I want to stand by every word and comment I say. So if I said something one time, I either learn from it or move on. And because I have used my real name, I have met people that come to me directly and respect what I said or know it was me who said it. So when I moved up the ladder, I would deal with people that knew I was speaking to what they saw me do.
I also run into people often when I go to camps or things across the country, people that have read this forum. I am very pleased with the legacy this has created and allowed me to do other things as a result of people know my words are from a real person. Not many people on this forum over the years can say that.
Peace
