i couldn't agree with you more, Wayner. Especially you, Wayner. You have been more than merely an "audio" friend to me, my brother, and you have been here for me in many other ways.
While there are many malcontents on the forum that hide behind the anonymity of their keyboards, I find it easy enough to separate the men from the boys, and I just ignore the "keyboard warriors".
There are too many wonderful, generous people to specifically name at the moment, but I consider Gordy, Anand, TJHUB, OgOgilby (who has blessed me with his time and thoughtfulness), K Shep, Nuance, Frank (my "audio father"), Jim (my other "audio father" and more), Dennis, Zybar, John Kenny, Wayne 1, Ted, DougSmith, Marty, Mary, Bill O'Connell, Ed Cramer, Mike G., and you, Wayner, and others, as my friends.
I have had some tough personal experiences of late, and many of you have gone way beyond the call of duty and have treated me with the kindness and understanding that is often only reserved for true family. I have rarely felt such kindness and caring, and i will always be grateful, and I hope that I can live up to the examples that you have shown me.
