Thanks everybody for the warm welcome. I see that, for most of you, I have some connection to each of your locale's. Let's see now... Goldenmean, my ex-wife's family lived near Chicago; rlcline76, I supported an Army exercise out at Ft. Bliss years ago; SJS, my brother used to live in Rancho Cucamonga when working as a pharmaceutical rep in that territory - he's relocated back to the San Diego area (where I went to High School and where the folks still are) now, though; AQTCJAK, you don't say where you're from so I can't make a tie-in; Dentoid, you're right here in DC so that's easy enough. Victor, you're the only one that I don't have a geographic tie-in with. Growing up as a Navy brat, I've been a lot of places. The closest I've come to Sacramento, though, were the years we lived in Alameda in the Bay Area.... Hey, say hi to Ah-nold for me!

Now, Scott, 9000+ posts here but only 7 on the WAMAS forum?! Most of my tank and frag pics are up on the WAMAS board but I'll try to put a few in here. Mind you, most everything started from frags and it's not very impressive yet. Plus, I'm taking my time - after all, I got the itch to do this probably 7 years ago and almost took the plunge. At the time, however, I decided that I couldn't give all the time that this hobby was going to require and so I put it off until this last year. No need to rush things, right? Only bad things happen quickly in a reef aquarium - isn't that what they say?
