While it's nice to be able to move with a degree of impunity - I call all the shots all the time - without any dissenting opinions to keep my feet on the ground, it's up to me to keep my head from spending too much time in the clouds! Thank you, CASUDI.

More then just an analogy it gives a basic simple guideline for building a community, and since I love building fires whether in an inside wood fireplace or a burn pile in the clearing it really made sense to me. It is fascinating to watch your community evolve; through the research & planning stage (and I know you did this very thoroughly), design & implementation leading to participation, involvement & growth (success).<br><br>I assume you have done this without corporate endorsement, and probably moved faster and more passionately!
