Being a new member of PM, I find myself here on a near constant bases, both at work and home, to find solutions to problems and just because I can. It is one of those rare sites which is invaluable not because of the information contained in it, but because of the users who give this information freely, all of whom I thank for the many answers I have found.

    ...but because of the users who give this information freely....

    For all my words above, I think that phrase captures the essence of what I was trying to say above, and more accurately. Its not just free in the financial sense, but freely, in the 'willingly, and un-encumbered by quid pro quo' that is the distinguishing factor maybe.
