I admit I'm more of a lurker on this board as tournament play is essentially a Sunday afternoon diversion for me. I pop in here every week or three for a quick scan of the latest news and move on to other places and forums.
But I really have to say, even given an occasional ruffled feather or two, this is such a nice and civil board. I get on another work-related forum daily and find myself clenching my teeth far too often. In fact this evening I was stewing (even spent 10 minutes to prove myself right) and suddenly thought to myself "man, I need to go to the black jack tournament board and just mellow out". Even though I already knew the 710 thing, it was nice to come in here and relax.
So thanks for the jokes and the friendly, non-judgemental atmosphere. It's nice to read threads where people are trying to arrive together at good answers and not to prove why "I'm right and you're wrong". I needed that. To reaffirm the whole world isn't lost in one big rat race.
