Dear Manlobbi,

Now that I have been posting on Shrewd'm for a short spell, checking around and reading
posts on different Boards I just wanted to thank you for creating Halls of Shrewd'm.
I posted at TMF for something like going on twenty five years and was sad to see all my favorite Boards there disappear along with the loss of many poster friends.

The similarity of your site to TMF and seeing familiar user names warms my heart.
The time and effort you have spent creating Halls of Shrewd'm is greatly appreciated
and I'm sure many of the former Fools here feel the same way.

Again, Thank you

LM, aka LurkerMom

Dear LurkerMom,

Thank you for your extremely pleasant Open Letter. To see people so active this last month is really a joy for me. For many of these authors, and even more readers, these message boards are not merely 'substituting' with some other time-spending, but really adding relationships back into their lives, filling what for many was expressed to me in emails literally as emptiness, and despondence. That has been completely replaced with merry spirits, and I have put my soul into almost every little pixel to make it fun to use.

I have kept track of and enjoyed reading your posts also amongst many others. Let's continue the culture for another 25 years, and then beyond - and try to pass the merry and shrewd self-education spirit to other generations. Accordingly I posted an investing beginners post here -- https://www.shrewdm.com/MB?pid=633212238 -- and hope that people will invite their grand children or other youthful ones to the board, similar as some started here 25 years ago.

Dear Manlobbi,

An added note is the civility between posters with opposing points of view.
So nice to finally kibitz with other posters without trading insults, etc.
Another reason to enjoy posting here.

Also, as you had previously noted many of us have been able to keep our former user names
making it nice to see familiar 'faces' even though I have not interacted with some,
but still read their posts and giving rec's, especially to posters on the financial boards.
My (ahem) fortune has been made, but their advice and information is always a plus.
