Just wanted to point out that this is the 500th message on this Message Board.

I'd like to congratulate Cass on doing such a great job on this site and keeping it up to date.

Adding this message board was obviously an excellent idea as so many questions and answers and ideas and comments are shared here for all to read.

This site is truly the Premier Beer Resource!

Thanks a lot. I'm very happy that the discussion forum has turned out to be successful. Glad to see so many good beer drinkers in Toronto!

Although I really appreciate the fact that this forum exists, let's not get too excited. 10 members have posted almost 84% of all postings on the forum so using the word "many" to describe the number of good beer drinkers in Toronto is a bit of a stretch as that means that about 2,999,990 Torontonians don't care. The similar French language St-Arnould forum in Quebec makes us look like a lonely hearts club. That's not to say we shouldn't all work to educate the huddled masses about good beer but we're far from being at the point of patting ourselves on the back. We are still a very small and exclusive club.

What I left out of my last message is a big thank you to Cass for his efforts!

I realize we are still a small band of renegades dedicated to the cause of good beer. But I can say that in the three or so years this website has been active, I have seen a noticable increase in the interest of good beer in the city.

I would like to commend Cass and all the bar towel readers out there for their website. As president and delivery guy for Scotch Irish Brewing Company in Ottawa, I look to bar towel for enlightened guidance and response regarding my current products and my forthcoming seasonals. I have already received valuable feed-back regarding my IPA project from the folks at bar towel and welcome any further comments.
Cheers and keep up the good work!

Even though a small handful of people are actually posting...there are those of us who rarely post, but read the forums frequently...I want to really thank Cass, and those of you who do post frequently for providing us lurkers on the board with this excellent resource.
