Peter,
Is there a way to find out when we joined LM-Net? I know I'm a very
early member (pre-1997 dinosaur era), but I have no idea of the date I
actually joined. I remember waaaaaaaay back in the olden days there
used to be a searchable member directory with our profiles, but I think
that got stopped. I'm just curious how "old" I actually am.
I haven't sent a thank you because I don't know what I could add to
others' sentiments. I do know that I have you to thank for not just a
valuable service, but sometimes, my salvation. Every time I help
another LM-Netter, I add "LM-NET ROCKS!!!" to my signature, and I mean
it. When I submit my end-of-year self-evaluation, I always list LM-NET
under my professional development opportunities, as I feel it's the most
important resource I have for my own professional growth, and it also
offers me the opportunity to contribute toward the growth of other
professionals. How awesome!
I had to stop reading the thank you's and testimonials because they
make me cry.... We'll miss you!!!
Bonnie

Subject: GEN: LM_NET and Its Growth 1992 - 2007 (and Thank You!)
Dear LM_NET Colleagues,
Thank you all so very much for your wonderful comments and messages of
appreciation that you have shared for Mike and myself. We are very, very
moved and deeply touched by your words, memories and expressions for us.
Some members have asked about the growth on LM_NET, so I am sharing an
edited version of the weekly report that I have been sendingto Mike and
myself each Monday morning since we began back LM_NET in June of 1992.
The comments accompanying each week's figures somehow connected to our
growth, issues we were dealing with at the time, or simply the world or
local or personal events affecting our lives. I hope you enjoy this set
of numbers.
Peter Milbury, LM_NET Moderator Emeritus
