Thank You Dirk

Dirk, I just wanted to thank you for all the time and effort that you put into TGO. I was totally suffering from withdrawal when it was down. Thanks, and I'll be sending a donation!

Shakes, pains, night terrors, . . . whew. Glad it's over.

It's also a great thing that Google caches pages. They had just about every page I needed during the interim available, albeit without images.

I also want to voice my thanks to Dirk for all his hard work.

Just another 'Thank-you' Dirk. It takes time and work to run a web server and keep things smoothly going on a site this large.

As a side note, i been kind of curious if TGO was running on only 1 cpu of the 2 after the HD crash and reinstallation of the o/s due to some reason.

Just another thumbs up to Dirk. I expected this site to be down for much longer after reading what happened. Good to see our in-house consultant JT on the case, too. Smart bastard.
