Great work!! Thanks for all you do to make our life more enjoyable!

 

May we live, not by our fears but by our hopes; not by our words but by our deeds; not by our disappointments but by our dreams.

Don't visit much anymore, but it's now much much faster, thanks.

Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right

to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers,

and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. Revelation 22:14-15

Do what? Proudly announce? Y'all just gotta see Wim posting the announcement to see that. Buttons practically flying off his shirt... LOL

 

Seriously, it was co-ordinated remarkably well, huge databases transferred without error, guru's anticipating potential problems and preventing them, one specialist handling specific areas of the transfer in conjunction with another handling his own areas. As an observer, it seemed like an musical being presented with the composer and conductor working together to present a new performance.

 

Seemed simple when it worked, but the feeling that it could have gone much more ... awkwardly ... was not far away from me for most of the several hours it took.

 

There are likely members of the FPN with a lot of expertise in running a BBS, or perhaps with IT knowledge equal to or possibly exceeding that of our gurus, but I have to ask whether they are willing to donate that time freely, without any reward other than the knowledge of a job well done ... for years. We've gotten that type of support from Wim and Roy for quite a while. More than one has a right to expect, I would submit.

 

So I for one, am very grateful that we have these people helping us, otherwise, I suspect we wouldn't exist.

 

Certainly not in the form we do currently.

 

Just my .02....

 

Regards,

 

Gerry

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
