Congratulations David. It has been a long time coming and I can't even imagine the amount of work that has gone into putting everything together.
And as you know all-too-well the real work is just beginning.
I am sure that everyone is pulling for your success because your success is our success.
It will be my privledge to offer you my support. The fee seems very resonable.
Bill

Thank you Bill.

To use an analogy, I sense that some people are expecting a "County Fair" to "Disney World" transformation, overnight.

This step, is to allow the continuation of what we have here, with the ability to take it further.

It's a simple plan, but one that will be very effective.

I'm not sure what to expect but even if nothing at all changes the charge will be justified.
I have always felt that what you are offering now is valuable enough to deserve a fee.

Congratulations to all involved! The folks at Access appreciate all of the hard work and dedicaiton that has gone into making this site what it is and will continue to support it now and into the future.

I also hope you don't change it too much because some us prefer the County Fair to Disneyland...and always will.

David,

A bargain at twice the price. BTW, how much is it again and can I pay in installments? (devil)

Congratulations

Dave

Thank you Diane.

The worst thing we could do, is stray from the formula that's gotten us this far; and that's been serving as a one-stop, quick-response Help Desk for the industry.

In fact, last night, Harvey and I were marveling over the diversity of our members.

I said, "It's amazing! I'm sure if someone had a question about dog grooming, they'd get an answer." :-)

This site has proven itself as important a resource for us in running our business as any other industry "tool"; probably more so than most. And I enjoy the opportunity to lend a hand when I feel I have something to contribute.

As soon as your "buttons" are activated, we'll be on-board. Unless, of course, your requirements include that our parents actually be married. :O)

I appeciate that vote of confidence; and no, there will be no DNA testing as part of our signup process. :-)

I want to mention that the primary reason for our 8:00 pm launch.

That's when our talented administrator, Eric Gillingham, will be available to deal with any technical difficulties we may encounter.

The system has been tested and all is running smoothly, but please contact us if you experience any difficulties.

Bite your tongue!!!
As a official Disneynut I must take exception and umbrage with your comparison.
I must let you know there are a lot of us out here and it is risky to get us riled by saying negative things about Disney.
As a saving grace you did say Disneyland, which is way out there on the other edge of the country, and not DisneyWorld where I make my 2 to 3 times yearly pilgrimage but in the future be very careful.
Since you probably didn't know any better I absolve you of your bad judgement this time but may not be so forgiving if it were to happen again.

Dave:
8:pm west coast time--sorry I'll be in bed. However, you know how new I am to this forum, I was hoping to be the first to push the "join now" button. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Cody and I remarked this morning at what a wonderful group we have here. I look forward to being part of it for a long time to come.
Nice job Dave, you should be very proud of this. Thanks for all your help.
Mike

Michael,

You may be new here, but your presence and knowledge in areas we rarely discuss have been a welcome addition to the site.

Thank you.

This isn't a grand opening, just the date and time we selected for the change in format. We'll be here for you tomorrow and for many years to come.

I can't believe anyone would whine about $36.00, or $20 for WOE for that matter. This resource is FAR more timely and valuable than any trade magazine. If you are serious about your business, spend the few bucks to join both sites. If it saves you one mistake or gets you up and running on the weekend or any of the other valuable things that happen here, you have already gotten your money back. Besides, you can write it off on your taxes! If your business doesn't generate enough $ to invest $56.00 per year back into it, then you need these resources worse than most; either that, or another profession.

Guess I should have addressed that to "ALL"!

Bobster,

We'll have to continue the conversation on the other side.

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

Countdown is in progress!

The subscription site is up and running, with most bugs ironed out.

If you are having any troubles signing up there click on the 'Contact Us' link in the dark bar at the top and send us an email.

It is about as active as it was before with even more in depth replies because it cannot be spydered by the Internet so everything is between engravers and the public cannot get in. Hope to see more of you there.
