xchrom and you were/are two DUers whose posts I've always rec'd. And I regret that I haven't shown my appreciation more actively. I stepped back from posting some years ago, but losing xchrom has made me realize that I really need to let my favorite DUers know that I truly appreciate what they do.

And I'm happy to start with you. I want you to know that every time I see an OP by you, I am so grateful that you're here and doing the wonderful work that you do!
