Bruce, in 2005 so far, there are over 8500 unique visitors each month in the forums -- and we're quickly approaching 1600 registered users here.
Most people visit, but are not participants. One would presume that many are gathering information for travels to the peninsula.

Could I have more than one? How about an open tab?
And where do I send the bill?

I don't post very often on this board. I'm definitely not going to get involved in any posting about Americans being stupid in Mexico (believe me
there's plenty of opinions about it already without having to hear my 2 cents).
I'm also not going to post about places I've never been to or pretend that I know of places I've only visited once or twice.
The only times I might post would be to comment on a certain area in Baja that I know well or to comment on a story or posting I find interesting.
But I do log on and "lurk" on this site practically every day.
On a side note, I once said that this board had too much drama for my taste. Well I have to eat those words now. I have learned to like all the
different personalities that post here and I've come to realize that everyone's opinion matters in some regard.
To top it off I have 100% respect for Doug Means and what he has done. His was one of the first Baja web sites and remains one of the best. Thanks
Doug.

Hi Bruce,
Great person? Thanks I'll take any complement I can get!
As for spelling I still mess up a lot of words but I use spellchecker before I ever post. Then I read the post over and over before I submit. I
changed the above message about 3 or 4 times before I posted it!
Thanks again for the complement.

I know about the spelling. I choose to believe he meant "great" -- it makes me feel better about myself!
One other thing -- Hey Doug about the "Peace, Love & Fish Tacos", is it supposed to be in that order?

The order is as you see it/want it - but that is the commonly known phrase.

Tim, they are just trying to lure you into posting. It's like a drug, they are going to get you hooked. They already got you to do it 3 times. Be
careful with these guys, they seem innocent enough

It'll realistically depend on which way you traverse the peninsula. 
..and thank you for your nice words. As of 2005, yours is one of the older sites on Baja travel as well! Let me know if you ever need help with
anything.

While we are on history, let me just add that Tim was agood friend from the days of my 'gobaja' chat room... He helped me get my web site off the
ground and hooked me up with Dick, on BajaLinks.com.
It was Tim who thought of inviting other Baja web folks to that get-together/meeting on the San Clemente Pier in early 2000, which evolved into the
'Viva Baja' fiesta of which four have been held.
Thanks Tim Walker... and also thanks for co-hosting Fred Metcalf's Baja Calif. Travelers Message Board... the first Baja Internet forum!

Doug, It would be interesting to know how many members were registered prior to the old Amigos board closing down. I really enjoy this format a lot
better - and surely thank you for all you do for all of us Baja lovers!
