I have had a nightmare of year (business related) and it has litarally absorbed my life. It was very sudden and very bad. As many of you may be aware, the new home market is not very good. In fact, in Michigan it has been completely detroyed. When you build homes for a living and sales slow, you tighten up the ship and drive through it. We are way past that point here...Most of the people I know (in the business) have either gone under or left the state (leaving their own homes open to foreclosure). So basically, I have spent 11 years buidling my business only to see all disappear...regardless of how much I have invested (time and money).I do apologize to all that were affected this mess. I will make it right as best I can. Just send a PM. And no, I did not relocate to Harper Woods.The button is cool...

It has a sort of neologism sound [see also 'embiggins' & 'cromnulent' of Springfieldian English]. The spellchecker on this forum recognizes 'normalcy' even though it marks 'chainmail' as wrong. I guess the programmer must be a full-plate purist.
