Ok maybe I am a little off here.
I did get one of the 300,000 post patch and for the life of me I cannot think of a more generous gesture done by the owners of any forum.
I don't know what it cost Dan and Patti when you include the wages, postage and cost of the patch its self, truth is I don't want to know, it is enough for me to know what good people own this site.
This place is my virtual coffee shop where I get to hang out with some really great people and talk about almost anything that comes to mind.
I think we should not be asking "What can Dan & Patti do for us, but rather what can we do for them."
What I suggest is that something for them. Here are a couple of my suggestions;
1) Each dog purchase a postcard from their hometown and mail it to Dan & Patti with a thank and the date and time of the 500,0000 post written on it.
2) Send a photo of yourself and/or your knives with a note it thanking them for their site.
Let me know what you think

I think that's a great idea, yote.
I don't think anyone here is asking for a handout. I'm sure everyone here would be fine with Dan coming up with something special to comemorate the special occasion and make it available for purchase. That's really all I had in mind when I started this thread.

That's really all I had in mind when I started this thread. I know SP, and I think on this thread there have been multiple suggestions on what we could buy. Personally I would go for dog tags. If I came across as suggesting that people were looking for a handout my apologies as that was not my intent. I just had a vision of a cork board in Dan's office with dozens (hopefully 100s) of postcards from all over the world saying thank you.

I think that's the least we could do for them. I'm all for it. Now if we could just get someone to start the SYKCO appreciation thread.

Let me know what you think I Think that is a Wonderful Idea. I'm sure Dan and Patti and the rest of the SYKCO Crew would really enjoy that.
