Its always good to have another voice, another opinion, another perspective.  Even if its something that has been discussed a great deal its always good to have the fullest possible spectrum of views.  And its especially refreshing to have someone who expresses their views coherently and presents them in an easy to read manner.....not one massive paragraph that strains the eyes.

That would be one suggestion I would make to everyone here....to break up long meandering posts into paragraphs, it makes it much easier and more pleasant to read, seriously.

Welcome torpedoman, looking forward to your thoughts on the AGM as I won't be there...Calgary is more than just a walk or bus ride for me.
