Welcome, namvet!

There are a three of us (that I know of) who live here in MO. Dumbass Tanker, doc, myself, and now you. Lots of different things here on CC, so I'm sure you'll find something of interest.

I'm hanging out in the SW portion of MO, Eupher.  BS'ed for not knowing that.   :-)

Oh, and welcome, namvet.  :cheersmate:
