Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

been purposely watching the national news this morning , ive yet to see a story on this day of remembrance , i dont forget because i got informed as a youngster by those that were there and those that enlisted following the japanese attack on our pacific fleet/harbor ,

too little is said these days to remember that fateful day , i guess there are not enough that recall left , ive noticed that 911 has also dropped off and thats only 21 rears ago , mostly its fund raisers looking for contributions

ive seen a few at half mast - but bob dole died at 98 a couple days ago and i was told that was the reason , i guess ill give the benefit of the doubt to what we might expect but not hold my breath that its a fact
