Sue, your work is more appreciated than you could imagine. It is the VMS community's only/main source of information about VMS, a lonely beacon of good news which greatly helps counter the doom and gloom that is discussed.


And even if we may debate some of the items from your posts they are still good news. For instance, in a podcast, one can argue that McQuaid's statement of the USPS being a new win was really just a renewed commitment to VMS (they were already a VMS shop), but this is still a good news.
