Hey vis.social!

I haven't talked about this much, but one of my long-time goals is to build a team and goals that can survive if I get hit by a bus.

Long time sustainability!

We've already come through my cancer diagnosis, treatment, and full recovery.

But we can do even better.

If you'd like to spend a few hours a week or month to help our community here, let me know.

Ideally, I'd like to have most folks in our community spend about 1 hour per month helping out.

#visSocial

By the way, vis.social folks have been well cared for by our amazing moderation team, while I've been offline!

I didn't want to announce my off-line traveling time before I came home, because I didn't want to risk adding more burden on them while I was away.

To those who noticed my quiet, and missed me? I missed you too!
