Very nicely said.
The PuristS are in major part a society of people trying to do good things without worrying about getting credit for it. That ethos permeates our gatherings, both in person and electronic, and is very refreshing. Thomas is really the one who made it that way, both by example and by careful nurturing of our society, with the moderators and the entire community following enthusiastically. I left the gathering grateful to all of you and with renewed energy for behaving similarly.

I agree AV.
You hit the nail on the head. We have something real special with Dr. Mao, PuristSPro, ThePuristS and all the moderators. I am proud to be a learning member who has also been advised by Dr. Mao on a few purchases. IGOTT2 was a great event. Could you ever ...

He's a super guy with no pretense or lofty airs despite being the creative force behind this wonderful group. Thomas, are you blushing now?
Thank you, AV, for that wonderful note.
I cannot speak for TM, but I can only imagine that it touches him deeply. Having had the pleasure of meeting you in person several times now in LA, and most recently at IGOTT2, I can say that you too are a generous person who truly understands what it mea...
Indeed
AV, I concur. As PuristS, we seek perfection in an imperfect world but we are not so naive as to believe people are flawless. Dr Mao is overall a 'good egg'. Regards, MTF
