lets all thank the iceman for making such a great web site

[TJD]

go iceman thanks for the website did a good job thankyou:bowdown:

[Dennis]

Yeah – Mike & Terry took an enormous leap of faith and look what has transpired; a vibrant, friendly, topical and thankfully hygienic amateur astronomy Forum - a great place to stay in touch, keep up to date and meet with a great bunch of like minded folks.:)

It doesn’t hurt to occasionally remind ourselves of our good fortune; we have a free astronomy home to visit, inhabited by some mighty fine folks!:thumbsup:

Cheers

Dennis

IIS is my home away from home.
Through this forum I've met so many kind, caring people. :)
Thanks Mike.

[MrB]

Yep, great place and full of great people.
Think I might show my appreciation(sp?!) by clicking on that button.
Which Button?





<----- This one! :D

[JD2439975]

Yeah thanks Mike :thumbsup:

Not only is it the people you meet but the wealth of information as well.
You can learn in days or weeks what would take years of hard slogging trial & error by going it alone.

And errors in this hobby can be expensive.

Thanks to all involved.

Yes, I certainly agree that this is a well designed, professional means of communication. Thanks for having me and letting me use it, "Iceman".

[jjjnettie]

Marty,
I was talking to Alison yesterday (the blondie who works at the Hunting Lodge), and she gave me good reports about you.;)
Let us know next time you're coming up and we'll catch up for a couple.:thumbsup:

[Baddad]

When I head up there again I'll PM you before hand.

Looking forward to meeting "Lady Scientist". :lol::hi:

[Bassnut]

Lets all remember it takes a lot of Mikes effort, time and some money to keep this all going. Dont forget to click on "donate" from time to time :D.

[Paddy]

Thanks to Mike indeed for a great resource! Not only a font of useful and interesting information, not only a way of buying wonderful 2nd hand goodies, but also a constant companion in my worsening addiction! I suppose its the company of a community of addicts all egging each other on. Fantastic!

A very welcoming and pleasant place.

Thanks Mike & Terry for a fantastic and useful site.

[barx1963]

Second all those thoughts. I know there are some around who are not big fans, but I have found all the info and advice from IIS community invaluable. Mike & Co need to be supported.

[leon]

Yep, I have to agree as well, top site, and the help available is just incredible.

Leon

[iceman]

Thanks very much for the impromptu "thanks" thread.

Terry and I really appreciate your kind words. Comments like this:



really mean a lot and make the last 4.5 years of work worthwhile.

We've got a lot of exciting changes to IceInSpace coming up this year and I can't wait to share them with you.

Thanks again.
