    I understand. The site does serve a great purpose for the industry though, that's why i thought you'd like it. Plus, you're like a god on here... coffee industry professional for around 20 years! That's 10 times longer than me! I made coffee for my entire family for Thanksgiving: Papua New Guinea. Everyone loved it; thanks.
