Saga continu.... 100q wont start now

[George Harris]

Hi Brett:

There are many jobs that are not appreciated by the beneficiaries and I believe yours is one of them. I appreciate the work that you and others put into the list that benefits many like myself who lurk and learn, but contribute little because others beat us to it, or know more.

I too find it a little difficult to read some of the posts due to poor spelling and poor grammar, but without knowing the source and native language, I just put it down to someone writing in a foreign language. 

Keep up the good work. Some of us appreciate it :-)

Cheers
George
