  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Seriously though -- thanks for dealing with the headaches of keeping the site going. Much appreciated. Maybe not by my wife, but by me.

    The list and the database have been updated as of a few minutes ago. If you don't select "custom user title", your contribution level will be shown under your username. Speaking of that, I noticed that many of you have upped your contributions this year, and I appreciate that. Certainly I and the board have felt the effects of the pandemic, and your increased generosity really helps out here.

    For my returning contributors, who support the board each and every year, I thank you guys.. could not do it without you!
