Sheesh. I'll try harder.
That's the exact reason I didn't put up some of the names in here. There are the forgotten FIRST-a-holics who no longer do FIRST, there are the current FIRST-a-holics who just started recently, there are veteran FIRST-a-holics who started as early as the forgotten FIRST-a-holics who aren't as well known, and there are up-coming FIRST-a-holics.

People like M and JVN have been around for a long time, and they should be known as veteran FIRST-a-holics. Same with a lot of the bay area crew, such as Bill and Jim Gold, Mark whitehouse, Jon Lawton. They have been around for a while, just not as loud on Chief Delphi as the rest of us.

Then there are a whole bunch of FIRST-a-holics who never post on Chief Delphi, but are major participants at their local area, who everyone knows. But most of them won't know them unless you've met them or work with them before.

I guess my point is, it's so hard defining the term "FIRST-a-holic" now a days! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! I just wish there's an entry in a dictionary that clearly states what it means, and the proper way to use the term.
