Thank you everyone for your kind words. It has been a long and difficult road. Sometimes during the years spent at Eastern Moderator University (EMU) I wondered if it was worth it. Now I know it was!
There are so many people to thank. All the professors whose guidance and encouragement were always there for me. Also a thanks to all the little people, the moderated, without whom there would be no need for Moderators. A special thanks to the YWN editor, who decided to take a chance on me, when no-one else thought I could do it. And to Moderator-72 who patiently guided me through the transition from student to Moderator.
And of course, to my dear wife who was there for me in the middle of the long nights, cramming for the finals, with a cup of coffee and a hug.
As our whole class said as one, at the end of graduation day: “LET’S MODERATE!!!
