Terri,
It is not *I* who adores himself! I have no mirrored monitor screen. I try to
avoid mirrors...
This was a joke involving Mal H.
-----
To be serious for a moment:
- The Senior v. Junior Administrator concept is a joke. The egalitarianism
displayed behind the scenes (among the Staff) is simply amazing.
- However, it would be foolhardy of me not to acknowledge, accept, and often
request the assistance of Rich, DC, Mykl, and others who have been on TFL
almost from day one. The informal and unasked for "Senior" label is only my
way of gently acknowledging (and showing respect for) their greater
experience and expertise. Frankly, I think it makes them a bit uncomfortable,
even as a joke; therefore it is probably questionable taste on my part to
perpetuate the concept.
For the record, they never have made me feel "junior" in any way. Their
support of TFL (and the staff) is greater than is apparent or even imagined by
our members (for whom TFL exists).
Most sincerely, I consider TFL to be a wonderful gift for which I am deeply and
continually grateful. I am awed by the time, effort, and expense so freely
given by Rich and other members of the Staff for our benefit.
The payoff is evident in the quality and increasing number of TFL members. This proves and will ensure that The Firing Line will remain -
