    Hey guys,

    Yes it will happen. I just can't say how soon realistically because some of it is out of my hands. It's been a big project involving several people now beyond myself.

    Unfortunately when it's other people involved, sometimes you are not on your own schedule but theirs. :p That is the case now as I am waiting for someone to wrap something up. Once they do I could turn it on in a matter of days.

    In the meantime, I am doing a little be more each day. Just today, every zip code in the USA was entered in a database. (Why? I'm not telling. :) ) But you can imagine that was a lot of zip codes and involved 8 megabytes of text that had to broken up into 1 meg chunks to install. Another hurdle jumped and on to the next challenge whatever that may be.

    So, sorry it's not right away, but all I can say is I want it done asap and I am doing everything I can. I hope we all can enjoy it when it's done and I can finally string a few beers together and take it in. Thanks for your patience. Should be a party. Date to be determined. [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

    Is it gonna be a "Paaarteeee over here or a paarteeee over there!?" OK, I can't rap.

    Don't kill yourself over all this, it won't be the same if you are not here!!!!!! Take your time, we will all be here! ;)

    I finally received a piece of the puzzle I needed for the new site from a friend. The ball is now back in my court. As soon as I get my taxes done, the new site will be wrapped up. Sorry for the delay. It will be worth it.

    Now you have the zip codes in, you can start on Canadian Postal Codes for us polar bears up here.
    Oh yeah! I keep forgetting you have area's with much worse weather than I do. Just saw on CNN somewhere in the US has 2 feet of wet snow in the last couple of days.
