A toast to the moderators

[RFKHumphreyObama]

I'm not going to be on much for the next week or so and will probably be logging off soon but I just wanted to congratulate the moderators for the wonderful and excellent job they are doing and their patience and commitment to maintaining the high standards of the forum at what probably is going to be one of the most difficult and challenging times to be a moderator since the establishment of this forum.

I've modded through some difficult periods - Senator Wellstone's premature and tragic death, the space shuttle disaster, the 2002 November congressional elections, the 2004 presidential elections, Hurricane Katrina and the death of Pope John Paul II -and have some understanding of precisely what the moderators are going through and how difficult, stressful and challenging it can be. But my fellow moderators have always handled things which such diligence, preserverence, calmness, tact and good judgment during those times and I already see that they are doing it know.

So to the admins and the mods :toast: :toast: :yourock: :hug: Keep up the good work and plenty of positive vibes your way :loveya: I know you'll need it the next few months
