Wow, so much has changed since the last time I posted here! I almost feel like a brand new visitor...so I thought I would reintroduce myself.

My name is John, and I am addicted to bonsai. Unfortunately, my addiction has not had much of an outlet for the past couple of years, but I am hoping to rectify that VERY soon.

I noticed that MANY of the old crew is no longer here. It looks like a lot of them were banned (Will Heath and FredL, to name a couple)...man, what did I miss out on? I will miss the arguments and hilarity that they provided.

I have also noticed that Pootsie is now a moderator! Congrats! It seems like more than a few of the old newbies are now in big standing. That is good to see. I am glad to know that some folks continue to advance this art/science.

I also noticed that Ron has the words "Deceased" below his name. That really saddens me. His posts were ALWAYS informational and entertaining. I will miss him.

To those who are just beginning to get into bonsai, and have joined this site for the first time...you have chosen well. From my experiences, which are admittedly a couple of years old, this is a wonderful community.

Anyway, I am starting to ramble....so, hello to all. If you are NEW, I am glad to meet ya, and if you remember me, I am glad to re-meet ya!

John
