VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

There is no other feeling like it. Presenting your traveling card to the chairman. Slugging up on a large metropolitan newspaper, when you came from a small one. Picking up your first "take". Sitting down at the keyboard of a Model 31. Hearing the mats falling . . . the smell of vita-flux as the pots are cleaned. I miss all that. We got our work done, and everyone enjoyed their job. No other job like it. Making your deadline!
