Hey IIS members

Today I met an IIS member in person.
I am a new member and a newbie to the hobby. This person made me feel very welcome to the community.
I have much respect for this member's abilities and achievments thus far.
I had a hundred questions to ask of someone with such a wealth of experience, compared to mine. I had to with hold the questions to respect my partner and not bore her by dominating the outing with only my interests.
I do not reveal the identity simply to protect the member from embarrasment. This way the member is informed of my appreciation and that all the members of IIS reading this know that there are some very good people amongst you.
I thank Mike Iceman and the IIS community for my partner's and my meeting with an established IIS member for a wonderful day out.
Cheers Marty
