    VCCC Members - Information regarding the roster

    I find this interesting, sad, and funny... ...all at the same time... Please note that while I rarely post on this website anymore (perhaps twice a year) - I rarely miss a day when I don't check in and I had to chime in. Some may recall at the end of 2011, a big push to update the roster was...
