Definitely been a pleasure.

I do a lot more reading over here than on most of the other boards I am on, not because of anything other than I enjoy the feel, and don't think I need to put in my $.02 that often. This is the nicest board I have ever had the pleasure to be on. Hobie and everybody here as well are just good folks, have wonderful attitudes, are courteous, polite, pleasant, and just pretty much behave like gentlemen. I have 3 places on the web I go to daily, here, THR, and a local board. If things are wild and I don't have much time, I still come here.

While I do appreciate Hobie's invaluable contribution to the site, his calm and helpful demeanor, and his kind help with reloading questions I have had, I must say that this thread, coming on Valentine's Day as it does, leaves me wondering more than a little about certain members of this board.

I have never had the plesure of meeting the man, but I'de say one of the finest gentlemen I have never met, a class act all the way and he definitely sets the standard for the rest of us to try and reach. Thanks Hobie.
