Re: Welcome

Not sure what "back" means, but it sounds like something was here before and was gone (for awhile). At any rate, it's apparently here now, and if it's Mitchell, I'm interested. Mitch L Hey Mitch L, yes we are back from our forum that had 2,700 + members and thousands of posts. We were att...
