What have you learned?

You said it better than I could, thanks brother.

Well lets see.......

I have learned that the MODS and the MEMBERS are very tolerant people.

I have learned that I have friends that I know I can count on. Some I have yet to shake their hands but I know I can count on them.

I have learned that a sense of humor tempered with common sense is a valuable thing.

I have learned that PMing a person explaining your position has a way of making both of you understand each others position better than a post.

I have learned that you can mend fences that were once broken.

I have learned that people care, more than you think.

I have learned that a MOD here can make a point and keep a thread on track with a simple sentence because they are respected. (See: HERE)

I have learned that we as members are damn lucky to have MODs that will talk to you long before they hit the ban button.

I have learned how to correctly light a cigar. (Never knew it could make such a difference, thanks Klugs)

I have learned that Sailors bombs will land, one day.

I have learned to be thankful for what I have. Other people have it worse.

I have learned that if I forgot something and add it later I will be called a postwhore.
