Vel,
At the risk of spamming, I want to second Voodoo's sentiment. One thing at sets Apolyton apart from other forums (existing and defunct) is the sense of fair play and good will that exists here. Our forum moderators have a good hand in this, of course, but there are some folks who are natural leaders, people who have gone out of their way to be friendly and helpful to others. Vel, you are one of these people (there are many others, too - a great forum isn't made by one person), and you probably don't realize how many people you have touched in your efforts. But beyond this, what has made your contributions truly excellent is your insight into SMAC, and the hard work you have poured into dispensing your knowledge to the unwashed masses. I know this wisdom has helped me, and others, immensely. But, as if that wasn't enough, you also have a gift for prose that is outstanding. For those who haven't read Vel's fiction, please do so. And if you are inspired there is much more on his web site.
Well, that was a little thick, but certainly deserved.
So, once again - welcome back.
