Dear Doc Lum:
Congratulations on your red star.
It is a pleasure to be able to enjoy your museum pieces that complete a dream collection.
Your thread is a therapy against stress. Observing your minerals takes you to a world of quality where each piece is a surprise.
Thank you and we hope to continue shaking with your treasures for a long time.
We should also thank your generosity with all FMF users.
Best regards

Dear Firmo,
Thank you for your high praise albeit undeserved. It has been a pleasure for me to participate in the FMF and I have also enjoyed seeing your collection so it is always a two-way street is it not?
Regards,
Don

Don,
After having been on vacation for the past two weeks with little or no internet, I returned to see that you have eclipsed the 1,000,000 mark. Congratulations!!! A well-deserved honor for a wonderful collection.
