You are right, SI is the crown jewel, and it would not be the same without you. Glad to see it back in your hands Uncle Bob.

Nice to know you're back Bob. You were MIA so long. I thought you had maybe crashed one of your cars in such a horrific manner that they were feeding you through a tube through the driver's window and passing you magazines while trying for all these months to pry you out with the jaws of life. I hear such things can happen in Boogerville.

Best of luck to you, Bob! I do have one suggestion when you get acclimated and can make some changes. One thing that I like better about I-hub is that you can click on favorite member's name and see all their posts in a list, instead of the set-up here where you must go to their homepage and click on each of their posts one by one. It is a very time consuming task when I want to read all of a certain person's posts. again, good luck and glad you're here! lbm1

I'd like to see SI adopt a multi-page view when clicking on a specific person similar to i-Hub. This makes viewing under an iPhone or handheld device much faster/efficient as it doesn't require multiple clicks to see multiple posts. I-Hub is much better w/my iPhone.
