Well certainly would fee a great void had come into my life. We so take the site for granted and I'm certain we would all miss it greatly. Steve provides something here we cherish.

Hi GB:
After cursing,  jumping up and down like a lunatic,
I would hunt him down..........

To thank him for the great experience he has given quite a few people,
myself included and start cutting the zillion patterns he has made for us. Maybe even try to design a few of my own in CorelDraw.

I belong to other woodworking sites also and check in on them daily, but this forum has, by far, the friendliest members that participate. I have acquired new friends and exchange emails with several people from other countries, as well as members from other states, within the USA.  

I work mainly on Intarsias and can't seem to get very many interested in trying their hand in them, however, I enjoy, very much, reading and seeing what others are working on.

The question was: What would you do?  I think Gary said it best, I also would feel a great void in my life if Steve would to shut down this forum. I would miss it very much!!!!

There are no medicines on the market that could handle my withdrawal symptoms ..... I would miss it very much but more than that  -  I would miss my "family" too.

Well, I would have more time to get other things done around here thats for sure! But seriously, I would defiantly have a very large void in my life. I have made many friends on this forum and communicate with a lot of them. I would still keep in touch with them.
Like Al, I visit other woodworking forums, but this is home for me, and would miss it terribly!

I would probably "speak" to my neighbors in my subdivision, versus typing to cyber aquaintances.

NO Richard...I was just noting the almost PANIC reaction to the problem with being able to upload to the "Brag" section of the forum!

I believe this site has evolved into so much more than Steve could possibly have imagined at the outset. It's much more than just a group of people who share the same hobby, it really is a community. This site has definitely motivated and without question inspired to me to take my hobby to a whole new level. I have learned so much from everyone here. I would definately miss being a part of this journey.

Well....Besides I agree with all posts I have to agree with Louis on his feelings.
There is not a day that goes by that I don't get on here and check into all the different sections of our Family Forum.  This is a bad thought....  Danny  :+}
