My story is simple. I owe the evolt community more than I could ever repay.
A quick search through TheList archives and you can see when I was learning
ASP (VBScript) and then PHP. Or when I was trying to write insane SQL
queries across multiple databases. And every time I had a need, someone
here had the knowledge and was willing to help. Without all the help from
this community I don't think I'd have ever become as proficient a developer
as I did. Over the years I've met a good number of 'self taught' developers
and I learned that many of the pitfalls they fell into I managed to avoid
because of TheList.

tl;dr You guys are awesome and I'll always be thankful.
