[Master Po]

congrats and many thanks for your good work. I wish you 40 more years at it!

I do feel obligated to point out at this juncture that longevity and working at T&FN go hand in hand. After all, I'm only No. 3 on the current seniority list!

[kuha]

This is cool--congrats. Getting paid to do what you love doing is what it's all about...

Congratulations!!

Many thanks as well. About 13.5 years after you started I (also 13.5 yrs old at the time) received my first T&F News in the mail and it's only gotten better and better since my first issue on May 1984 with Ben Plucknett on the cover.

Bravo to you on 40 years of excellence!!

Congrats, gh.

That's quite a milestone and you've been a big part of something to be proud of.

Wow, thirty years at the same job, think you might stay?......

Better check your math; I've been Sgt. Peppered twice already.

DOH! 40 didnt seem possible, even after intense mathamatical calulations on my part. :x
