Rich,
Thank you for your mention of JerichoMonster, RadioFreeJericho,JerichoRallyPoint, and Nuttsonline forums. I am always available to assist with worthy efforts as are these wonderful forums. Remember--we saved Jericho and we like helping others.
Gosh, I am so honored to get a shout out in your blog for two little words. You really made my day! Heck, my whole week!
Rich - Thank you for what you do.
You possess an incredible ability to inspire people with what you do.
Very few people know this, however if it wasn't for you, it is likely that the Blogger's Unite movement would not exist.
Thanks from,
The BlogCatalog Team
You are both very welcome. The pleasue is mine.
(BairbreSine wrote more than two word, btw. :)

Thank you Rich. I obtained some great information today thanks to this effort.
Hi, I participated in Stop the Abuse, but there was no clear cut place to post my link. I put it in Site Pro Plus and received directions to post my link here as well...

I think this was a worthwhile cause.
Terocious and Openminded,
Thank you. Your comments really mean a lot because it shows that this is less about buzz and more about doing something meaningful in the world. I appreciate it.
Robyn,
That is a very excellent post. Please certain you consider it for the blog for hope contest.
But I am glad you left a link, because this something I might like to touch on in the near future.
All my best,
Rich

How very nice of you to say. I really appreciate it. Gylon is extremely nice. He has already asked me back so I must have done okay!

The general talking points were about abuse, not communication, so please keep that in mind. :)
All my best,
Rich
Thank YOU, Rich.
