    Default Thanks to Dannzeman for all his hard work

    I don't know all the ins and outs of the ins and outs, but after around two years here I want to say this has been a friendly forum and I have found Dan's administration outstandingly welcoming, unflappable, efficient and open to free speech. I want to put that on record.
    Kindest regards
    Timothy Birrell

    When I went to the dc super show last year, I met Dan. He was very friendly and even let me fondle his pens. He was easy to talk to and very informative. Dan could have easily blown me off since I was an eight month old newbie but instead was the complete opposite.

    He helped me with questions about making my own podcasts. Talk about way beyond helping....it's not even fountain pens.

    He's gone a great job running the forum and did an outstanding job fixing a nib that I mucked up.

    Thanks Dan.

    Oooh you're doing podcasts?
    "What are moon-letters?" asked the hobbit full of excitement. He loved maps, as I have told you before; and he also loved runes and letters, and cunning handwriting, though when he wrote himself it was a bit thin and spidery.

    I agree this forum has been run in the most fair handed manner I have seen since my time in joining. That is all due to Dan. I am especially impressed with how he took his own criticisms in stride from the forum members when it happened. It's not easy to take people attacking you and keep a fair hand when the power to silence it is available.

    Dan, you are doing a great job here with the Forum and with the website and the sales and the nibs.

    I know it's also a tough job which is why I donate to the website from time to time. I encourage others to make a $5 or $10 dollar donation every year to keep the site evergreen and on line.

    What the... Well you should have a handwritten thank you letter from me, Dan. But I definitely echo everything said here. Thank you so much for everything. You handled my fan girl freak out like a pro at DC. Hopefully we shall run into each other again at another pen show.
