The best thing about Maillotpois is that she manages to be a great athlete, a positive presence here, and funny as hell all at once. Nice combo.

wow. thanks!
okay I will give it a whirl....
Jobob - makes me examine my priorities and ask myself what's really important to me.
SadieKate - is a wise and patient teacher of the technical and unfamiliar who doesn't mind occasionally having to repeat herself to those of us with some ADHD (also a marvellous host and tour guide).
Snap - makes me laugh out loud. A lot. Such that I might call attention to myself and make people worry.
Veronica - is amazingly determined.
Salsabike - has a huge amount of compassion (and also gave me a book once that made me cry. In a good way.)
CA - is loyal, to a fault, I think.Last edited by maillotpois; 07-18-2008 at 08:56 PM.

The best thing about SadieKate is that she is not afraid to speak her mind, and that she is so willing to share her vast store of knowledge about bikes as machines. She also makes me laugh.

The best thing about Wahine is her serious and determined nature, and her helpfulness to questioners here.
