[SEL] stationary-engine -- 10th Anniversary 19 September

[Gary Epps]

Brice,

As I hope I said at Portland, "Thank you for starting the list."  Also 
thank you for starting this thread.  While I have been a lurker most of 
the time, I have been a member since sometime in 1996.  I had discovered 
Gas Engine Magazine and answered and ad and bought my first engine in 
late 1996 while on a trip to Kansas and hauled a 1 1/2 hp John Deere E 
home to Michigan in the back of a 1995 Ford Taurus SW.

I have received an education on the list, met many friends and have many 
more that I have yet to meet.  I have received help and advice from 
friends on the list and have been able to offer a limited bit of help to 
  others.

As some others have said "Thanks for the trip down memory lane."
