There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Random thought for the day

Coffee strong enough to wake the dead?

You don't really appreciate good coffee until you have spent some time on a Vietnamese Air Base where coffee (and other things) are usually in short supply. To get any fresh ground coffee you have to get one of the crews coming in from a base outside the combat zone to get whatever amount they are able to buy and bring it back with them. When the supply of fresh ground coffee is running short in the briefing room, you don't dump the used coffee grounds. For the next 3 or 4 pots, you break open 15 or 20 the little packets of C-Ration coffee that are in every box of C-Rats, and sprinkle it over the used coffee grounds, then run them again with another pot of water. A sign and a bucket is always by the door for crews returning from missions to drop their unused C-Rat coffee packets in, and another bucket for any unused crackers, salt, pepper, or whatever else is not used up. You can tell just from the smell when a crew has just come back in with some fresh coffee from somewhere else.

Product development - where do the idiots get the idea that somebody's head should smell like the fruit flavor ice cream menu at DQ?!
There was about 40 feet of shampoo products, floor to 8 feet high, down one side of the aisle at the grocery store, and they almost all were fruit flavored. People who live in the Southern regions of the Okefenokee Swamp don't want their head to smell like something good to eat. The second you step outside of a screened-in area, 97 out of 100 things that are flying want to bite you &/or suck your blood. The other 3 flying things out of 100 are the Life Flight helicopters evacuating tourists with bloody stumps who were trying to feed the 'gators on the canoe trails; or the one who decided to catch a pet cottonmouth to take back home for show and tell after summer vacation. The first 97 are mosquitoes, sand gnats, yellow flies, horse flies, and other flying insects looking for a meal. I damn sure don't want my head to smell like something good to eat in that blood sucking swarm.
I finally found one that said it was Aloe Vera flavored. That should not attract them too bad, but you could still eat it. Why does your hair need to smell good to eat? Ignorant shampoo makers should be making them with zero smell or with a smell like lemon grass, or something else the blood suckers don't like. The soap is just about as bad, but there is at least some soap for people with allergies, without any fruit flavoring added!

It has been so long since I smelled, I don't know if I mind or not.There's always T-Gel if you don't mind smelling like freshly laid asphalt...
Guess I will just stick to unscented Ivory, even if I do have to order it off the web.
