Sure has been. The many people that I have met, both on and off-line at the
Bashes have been great and helped this newbie get a clue. Seems that these
migrations always end up falling around the Holidays. Red/Orange > shellX
was going on while I was visiting my Dad way back then and I have never
heard the end of it. Hehhehheh. Will be a fond memory. shell3 has been a
great environment. Sad to see it decomissioned along with all of us other
dunsels but it's these farewell mesages that tug so hard.

I got my "final" notice this morning. Don't know how long I'll have access
to best.* after this. See you at malch.malch.com and the Besties list.

So long. Happy Holidays.
