Everyone thank/welcome Mgalusha

Everyone thank/welcome Mike for taking over the reigns from me.

I happen to have the week off from work, doing some home reconstruction stuff, and a little speaker project too. However, I was noticing I had very little time over the last 5 weeks prior after obtaining a new boss. I just didn't think I had the time to really devote to being a good fac.

Mike was who I was hoping for, but I didn't know if he had the time, but he volunteered and John accepted. My PMs aren't working for some reason, so I wasn't able to thank them privately, so I am thanking you guys publically.

A great choice, however, that leaves less time for me to bother mike. aa

I'm tickled pink that Mike is the facilitator for the Lab, however, I agree with Turk, I use Mike almost on a daily basis to kibitz with about various DIY ramblings...

Basically, if I lived in Colorado, I'd be at his house all the time with some brew...

Welcome Mike. Being a moderator is a thankless and tiring job. Luckily the Lab is full of cold hard engineering types that don't get into too many controversial issues/discussions. So you shouldn't find any reason to suspend me (I hope).

Live long and prosper.

Welcome Mike.

Bob,

Step up with the book club so you can join in on the fun!

Mike,

As we had to loose Josh, I can't think of a better new moderator. Just remember, no good deed goes unpunished.

Thanks for facilitating The Lab, Mike. We are indeed lucky to have had such experts as Occam, JoshK and now yourself to help us through the thick weeds of diy.

What a great choice (er, volunteer)! Welcome Mike and thanks for taking this on. Tom

King of tweak!

Great to hear Mike! And since I know we're not "losing" Josh all is still very good.

Way to go Mike. Thanks a bunch.

Unfortunately for those of us that DO live in Colorado, Mike lives in Western Kansas

He also doesn't drink much beer

Congratulations on the facilatatorship, Mike. I'll do my best to behave myself around these parts.

Thanks gents. I still have to write my "official" welcome message and see if I can consolidate a few of the older stickies into one but I'll be watching you....

I try to not post in this circle so as to not expose too much of my scientific ineptness

...but, to welcome Mike Galusha to the fraternity of Facs I'm willing to face my shame

We'll do our best to not make you want to kick anyone, since you're still heelin' up and such ...

Welcome to the Lab Mike

In chronological order: Thanks Josh and welcome Mike. If you'd been thinking of a bit of rest and relaxation it looks as though you won't be getting it
