Gerry,

Congratulations on the 20 year anniversary of the site, an amazing milestone. While most fishing sites have come and gone, NJF has not only grown it's evolved into a community. I remember way back when the site went down, I think everyone was going through withdrawals not getting their daily dose of NJF. Your vision, hard work, perseverance and diligence has changed and in many cases touched lives which there is no greater accomplishment in life. Aside from the information and reports which initially attracts people to the site, the feeling of community is what keeps us here. And that's more of a cultural challenge which is borderline impossible to cultivate especially in the form of a web site but you've managed to do just that. NJF has really become the GOLD STANDARD for all fishing web sites to emulate. Like everyone else on this thread, I'd like to thank you for enriching our lives with NJF and thank the many members who contribute in a variety of ways to make this so much more than a fishing site. Every now and then people get it right and Gerry my hats off to you my friend, you nailed it! Look forward to the next twenty years being as great as the last!

Tom
