To the chiffy chatters.

To Alan and Moon- Thank you for your longsuffering patience. We've spent countless amounts of time together, just the three of us, and it's always a pleasure.

To Eld- I enjoy chatting with you. You broaden my horizons on so many things. You are a renaissance man if ever I've met one.

To Jack- I admire your passion for your beliefs. Thanks for being steadfast.

To Cran- I never could have imagined we had so much in common.

To Dale- Your unique take on life has shown me so much. Thanks for sharing that world.

To JimP- You are a warm person, whose sharing of himself has brightened so many lives.

To Sunny- We see little of you these days, but you were one of my first Chiffy friends, and one whom I admire and respect.

To Susan- I value your friendship, honesty, and straightforwardness.

To Karina- Thank you for not only letting me share with you, but for sharing with me. You've been a friend in the truest sense.

To NRG- You are a rock of reasonability.

To Lark- Thank you for all the times we've spent discussing any and sundry matters, whether serious or otherwise.

To Bloo- You complete Susan as no one else could.

To Carol- I may joke that you are my mother, but I truly do value you. We may be on different pages in some of our worldview, but it's never been about that. Thank you for the important things.

To Kevin- Thanks for considering the Waldco Flute Obsession CD idea.

To Amar- Thanks for warning me about Kellogg.

To Claudine- I truly enjoy your company.

To Congrats- Your wit is astounding.

To Ava- I trust you.

To Brigitte- I always enjoy hearing from you.

To Martin- You chat in odd hours, being an Englishman and all, but you are an engaging and endearing human being.

To Wombat- We haven't chatted much, but what little we have left a great impression.

To Lilymaid- You have a true gift for communicating with my artistic side.

To Telegram Sam- You are forthrightness personified. If you tell me something I've no doubt that you mean it.

To Spittin in the Wind- We have family from the same village!

To Fifer- Where have you gone?

To Nancy- It's been a pleasure visiting with you, not only online, but in person.

To BrassBlower- We ought to meet up in person, too.

To Nico- Thanks for being there when I needed someone to talk to.

Walden, this made my heart cry! It's so beautiful!

To Walden--everything you've said about everybody else applies to you ten-fold and I'm absolutely certain everybody else will agree with that! You're a true gem to have in chat!

Howdy Possums!

Walden, you are a great guy and I'm proud to call you friend.

I don't know what prompted you to post this--I hope everything is ok.

I haven't been on chat in a while--this is a good reminder to me to try to log in more often.

I do, too. I hope you're not leaving chat, Walden. It would never be the same without you (and I honestly mean every ounce of that). As Eld can probably attest, sometimes I come in just to ask "Where's Walden?" (I think it annoys him sometimes!

)

I, for one, have wondered where you have been lately!

Dale says I peed in the punchbowl.

I'm just sorry that I didn't know sooner that you, along with a select number of that big list of folks, didn't want me there.

???

Maybe there's a history I'm unaware of, here (probably is), but I've always enjoyed chatting with everyone, including you, Lamby.

This is a pretty nice bunch of folks, I can't imagine them excluding anybody.

When does all this great chatting occur? Past my bedtime I presume.

Late. Very late. I'm convinced that Moon never sleeps!

The funny thing to me is that so many board members don't even know who many of the chiffy chatters even are!

Lambchop, I never have said, or even intended to imply, that I didn't want you there. I did, by whatever accident, forget to list some folks, including Weekenders, Andrea, and others, but I don't dislike y'all.

Walden, what a wonderful post. I occasionally remember some very odd conversations and recurring jokes/themes from the chat room and one of them is muffins and an outhouse. I'm glad to call you my friend.
