Brian...You wanted to give back to people in some way? Well you are certainly doing just that my friend. Maybe at times what you have been doing so far has not felt to you like it has been enough but I think maybe you are not realizing the impact and future potential that what you have been doing is having on many people in many ways. And now you are using your expertise to help people hands on. Things seem to be falling right into place. Keep up the great work.
