Your contribution to this list is great and priceless. I don't think anyone
can ignore ur contribution to this list. I think people like you made this
list so valuable. Infact when I don't have time to read all the post, I
always search the post with names like Brain Dennis, Brian McGahan and Scott
Morris and others. This groupstudy is one the excellent and valuable
resource for CCIE. I feel it's very difficult to get the CCIE number without
this groupstudy.

Paul: If you really need funds to operate this gourpstudy, many of group
list members are ready to help you out.
