Default Astroholic.com Anniversary

Hello Members and Guests,

Today marks one year since we first opened AstroHolic to the world wide web.

I want to thank all our participating members for their ongoing support, for without you people we wouldn't still be here.

I especially want to thank Tex (our resident software technician), Mike (Dizzy, my Admin colleague), Trevor (Mylotian, our Moderator) and our sponsor Astro Shop without whose efforts and contributions we definitely wouldn't still be here.

Again thanks to all,

Time does fly when you're having fun, doesn't it...

To all of our members...THANK you all, and we're looking forward to many more years as the site continues
to grow............

And most importantly, thank you Vin, as a I doubt any of us would be here if it weren't for
your efforts and help. (and I would still be wondering what those lights in the sky were..umn.gif)

Mike
