I'm on the newer side myself and having a great time so far! In just a few months, I've met some very nice and helpful folks here. I'd like to suggest that you put your member number next to your name in your postings. Some of us also put our location. This helps people identify and remember who you are. And most will want to see it for contests, purchases, etc. Please send me your mailing address as I'd love to send a couple chips to you. Have fun!
