I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

Thank you everyone! It was worth it. I had lots of help from lots of people, so many of you (THANK YOU!!) who get the big picture, and understand how important bass fishing is to Michigan's economy, our quality of life and the total spirit of Pure Michigan!

Thanks Dan.  Glad this part is finally over.

I am too. Wish it was all over permanently but maybe a few more small steps will get us to a good compromise season for everyone.

Thank you Mojo! I really appreciate it! The work on the bass season has sucked a great deal of my time for the last year and a half. I need to get some of that time back to do more paying work, and maybe a little fishing! :) Thanks to Michigan B.A.S.S. Nation www.michiganbass.net for paying my mileage during all of this driving to more meetings than the past two episodes of Michigan Bass Season...
