Default Alan & Roger Appreciation Thread

I was looking through all my old posts, gathering information for a list of winter projects, and couldn't help but notice that most of the solutions to my posted questions were usually answered by either Roger, Alan, or both.

Both these Gentlemen have been an endless fountain of knowledge and assistance, and I would be remiss if I didn't take a moment to acknowledge their selfless contributions to this forum.

Thanks again, Guys. Happy Holidays.

Roger and Alan are both knowledgeable and respectful, two things that are not always found together.

They always have good or honest posts and replies. They never seem to be negative even when they have to correct You on a subject

Although I have not asked a recent question, Alan and Roger seem to help out all the time. The forum is great because of the contribution of members like these guys! (and Lars, also)


Thank you to all the knowledgeable contributors!
