If you are wondering why I have not been active lately I am currently sailing around Vancouver Island. Today I'm at a marina in Tofino with reliable Internet after days out of contact. I expect to be more active here next week.
Meantime the site is running itself very well. I notice that membership has stabilized and that income has dried to a trickle but may increase again with renewals unless people decide to become unpaid. We'll see. Making money was never the intent and paying the small monthly fee seems to keep the comments useful and supportive. As always, if you need to, you can contact me in the sidebar but sometimes it takes a while for me to notice.
I have not yet disbursed the funds to CG, but will do so shortly.
Read the comments especially Marc in Calgary.

Aren't they just wonderful! Her add to post is interesting. I have a son working on a pipeline in B.C. that was approved many years ago that I hadn't heard of as it never makes the news. Previously he worked on Trans Mountain which was major news daily.
