| | | So in an ill conceived attempt to work out some opportunities to explore ruins in Atlanta I joined this UER group, and was immediately disciplined for my failure to fully recognize the collaborative and communal efforts to locate, share, and protect ruined and abandoned sites. I just walked in here thinking I could hire a fixer and be given a disney-fied tour of such spaces, without ingratiating myself with this community. My identification with the places I was seeking out sidestepped the people with whom I share such identifications and this may have been for reasons I did not anticipate or for reasons I still have yet to learn. For those who took the time to message/respond to me with sagely wisdom and advice, I sincerely thank you. To those who looked at my pictures that I posted in order to begin building my "cred," I thank you for sharing in this act of looking at something we all seem to appreciate at one level or another. And to the a-holes who mocked me, thanks for reminding me that internet forums seem to be a place where wit perpetually goes to die. Perhaps my initial role as your punching bag will, if nothing else, help you on your path toward actually being funny some day. ;) (touché) But in all seriousness, by noting my bumbling entrance in this introduction I hope I am highlighting some of my sincerity in appreciating many of the reasons you all (and I) do what we do. I look forward to meeting some of you in the future, either at a gathering or in the virtual world! ==SDK

| | | You weren't the first, and you certainly won't be the last. Keep on exploring and contributing, and people will quickly forget your initial impression. Don't worry about it, though. It's really not a big deal. Lastly, welcome!
