It's not me. Congratulate yourselves for making this the best community out there. With members like you, this place is virtually free of bickering and BS and everyone can enjoy their hobby for what it is without the added drama.
I have to say that we do have a well focused member base here, no one is ever put down for lack of knowledge and everyone is always welcomed into the community with open arms and a smile. Thanks to all of you for keeping it that way!
I may have planted the seed, but OB definitely has a life of its own. Sometimes I've zero time, but I'll pop in and see major activity here. It's great to see that you guys are enjoying the board!

Way to go, Marty!!! Congrats to the all for making this the nicest, friendliest place to enjoy orchids!
Knowing that I can ask any question and get answers has given me the confidence to try new orchids that I wouldn't have thought about before. Which has in turn increased my enjoyment ten-fold. What a wonderful group of enablers here!!

It is nice to have somewhere else
besides our local society to discuss orchids as well as some other fun things with others. I have in my hands right now 'Fragrant Orchids,' a book which came recommended here. It is an easy reading book which I will use in future purchases of our favorite flower.
