I too am new to these group thingies. But I decided to go out on a limb and start by joining not one, but two! This and Reveille's homebrewers' group, that is.
Thanks for the invite, Mark! You've been a big part of this community since the early days, so I'm glad to see you leading the charge on the social groups.
I stepped over to Enworld today, and saw I had a Notification. Curious as to what it was I see I was invited to a CMG forum, and that can't be a bad thing. So here I am, hello and and good morning.
