Two Years of TFO!

[Josh]

The second anniversary of TFO is tomorrow (August 20th) according to my calendar. This wasn't the day the site "went live" but rather the day that someone other than myself became a member - the day the community started to grow.
Ever since then people have come from all over (most of them) to talk about one thing - Tortoises! Some of you came here as beginners, some as hobbyists, herpetologists - whatever the case may be - but the exciting part is that we've all gained by sharing what we do know and learning from others what we don't know. Knowledge is powerful - and I'm proud to be a part of this community where knowledge is shared freely and openly to anyone who is willing to listen.
I thank all of you for doing your part to make this forum great. Without you all, I'd still be here shouting to myself in the vast darkness of the internet.

Thank you!

Joshua

We've come a long way Baby . It has been a funfilled two years, learning about torts and turtles and People I would have never known otherwise. I thank every member for their contributions and JOSH for starting such an awsome forum for us to meet, confer, debate and create. Congratulations to us all. TFO ROCKS ! ! !

Oh and I raise my glass to toast another two years and another, and another, and many more, for our great forum.

Happy Birthday TFO and thank you Josh for giving all of us a place to convene - what I have learned on this site has been immensely important to providing Tank and Bump "the good life." Thanks to all of you experienced keepers too for taking the time to patiently answer the multitude of questions (sometimes repetitive questions) we newer keepers throw at you!!
