...But as I'd learned, I'd still be welcome here even by those that knew their geography. (and it'd go without saying about those that didn't.

)
I didn't realize that the old forums had gone poof, as I hadn't even gone here in quite some time; back then, when Rainer Fenixheart convinced me to join, I used a different name... And I was on the apprehensive side about surrounding myself with so many furries. (and my apologies to those who might remember me from then, for my deception of being non-furry) Since then, though, that's gone out the window with my attendance of AC'08, so here I remembered to actually come back. (after he reminded me)
Also, forgive my lack of icon at the moment... I have a badge that would fit the bill nicely, but I thus far lack a scanner. I hope to perhaps rectify the situation in the not-too-distant future...
