Flytyin - spot on about being yourself. Be yourself and let them decide if you fit in.

I wouldn't lose sleep over being accused of not "helping the community". Any guy who's been a T-38/F-16 IP/FE and Sqdr CC has helped the community.

If you click on a posters name one of the options is "more posts by the author". It allows others to judge the value of a poster's advice or opinion. I recommend that technique to people all the time. It can be enlightening. ;-)
