Thanks for the kind words regarding the LVAS website, Roger. It's still
a work in progress. I'm trying to decide how to make discussion forums
available to further increase our "Observer's Challenge" discussions as
well as other topics without requiring folks to have user names and
passwords for the website. I may not be able to do that because
Spammers love to hit open discussion forums with their garbage
postings. Anyway, it's nice to know others are giving us a look and are
somewhat impressed.
Most of the work on the Observer's Challenge is yours and Fred's. I
just take what you two provide me and format it with the sketches and
photos/images to make it presentable on the website with only minor
editing of the text. Thanks to both you and Fred.
Thanks again for your contributions.
