Here, we have a dedicated group of mods who take the time out of their schedules to make this a pleasant place to be. Whatever they decide to do with that thread or any other, I'd like to give them a vote of thanks for making this my favorite internet community to participate in.
Charles, I couldn't agree with you more.

Moderation is a difficult job with little thanks involved?? overall this site is well moderated and those involved do a great job. Can you find out how many Mods are from Scotland, this is the third time asking?????

Tom,

While this board has a very diverse membership from many countries it's actually based in the United States. While several of the MODs have very strong ties to Scotland I don't think any of them currently live there.

And give them some time to work on that thread - after all, it is a rather major family oriented holiday. Cheers.
