Gawd, I hate it when I have to get out of my grumpy, sarcastic mood and say something nice. Grrr. But here goes.
When I think of Oprano I think of Business and I think of Friends.
Now before Serge jumps in and explains again what is and isn't a friend to him. In this particular case I mean Friends in this particular case in the more wide term of everything from very good friends to "just plain" friends to close associates to distant assocates.
However, even if it's someone I have not previously done business with, or have not had very many conversations with in th past, even the most "remote" regular poster on Oprano (the ones we tend to think of as Da Family), tend to be someone who I have seen their name for years, they have seen mine for years, we have close shared experiences just by nature of all the years online. We greet each other like long lost friends at conventions, and they ARE people of honor that I most certainly WOULD definitely do business with (if I haven't already).
And there are few other boards if any at all, that I can say that about the great mass of regular posters, except for here.
