[Hidden-tech] Hidden Tech turns 23 on May 7!

[Christian Lagier]

A little sad to not see more responses. I have enjoyed this list for many
years and occasionally found good help and advice. I appreciate the
willingness to help others that come through in almost any response on this
list. It gives me hope. These types of community connections are important.
Amy - thank you for having created the spark. Rich - thank you for
everything you do to just keep it going. Everybody else - thank you for
occasionally helping out a fellow member of this Western Mass community
when you respond to a post.
