Greetings Robert.

Ye can request pirate status (instead of being an OWLet) if ye want but ye need to find the right thread

Welcome Cap'n Mason -- I see you've been given a great deal of free advice already aloing with the welcomes!

An update to your daily fic was the first bit I read upon returning after a bout of hacker-cide; may I offer a virtual cone-yak in thanks for it.



(Why this round of cone-yaks has a head is beyond me, but there it is...)

Hiya

Pretty cool forum.  I came here to check out a referral i'd seen in my home hydroelectric project site logs.  It's always interesting to see where people come in from and this message was in the logs:

http://toadfishmonastery.com/forum/index.php?topic=2485.msg119272;topicseen

Sadly I can't read it due to it either being restricted or perhaps deleted.  Anyway i'm checking out the rest of the site.

Welcome! Yep, I believe that's in a restricted area. Hang around for a while, though, and it'll open to you.

[Sibling DavidH]

Welcome, Zach!  Sorry you can't yet reach the thread you want, but why not hang around and join in? We're  quite harmless    and often good fun.

Hi Zachary - Welcome to the Toadfish Monastery!

We are brainstorming in a non-public area of the forum about off-the-grid living (generally), and one of our members posted a link to Home Brew Hydro as an example. I had a look around your site, and there's some good inspiration there for the DIY'er. I might bother you with a few questions (eventually) since you are around.

Feel free to have a rummage around anywhere you like in the Monastery; we get up to quite a broad range of things here, from games and silliness to some rather more serious stuff.  If we don't have a thread for any particular area of discussion, feel free to start one!

Hello Zach!

I hope you'll come back and post some more. We have a nice assortment of thinking people here, many of whom are interested in the greener living sciences as well as in peaceful tolerance.

[Griffin NoName]

Welcome Zach. Nice to know some folk follow links!  but sorry it's a restricted topic, at least until you have been around a while here. Hope you find things of interest,

[Bluenose]

G'day Zach from the Land Downunder, hope you decide to stay around!

Welcome, Zach.

How do, Squire?

Groovy.  Please don't hesitate to ask.  I've been off the grid most of my life so I'm kind of used to it.  The hydro system sure has made a huge difference though, especially in winter when the solar panels are basically useless

thanks and hi everyone else. 

[Opsa]

I'd love to hear more about it. Maybe you could post about it in our On the Beach Environmental Harmony thread.

[Aggie]

I started a thread over there, just for it!

Here is a linky to the Off-the-Grid thread.
