TO LOG IN: your user name AND your password will be your first initial followed by your last name.  no spaces, no punctuation, no caps.  The system is pretty easy to figure out, so play around once you log in — if you have any questions, let me know!   BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD once you’ve logged in!

Remember, this is YOUR forum, too, so any ideas for features or spaces you want to have, let me know.

More to come!

Russ
