Hi Everyone,

Here's an article that mentions my greenhouse system along with some other systems...there's a few pictures of the setup in the "More Photos" area. Quite exciting! :cheers:

It will be interesting to see the statistics on my youtube videos to see if they get any increased hits from the article.

Over the last 7 months since I posted my first GH video, the daily viewings have been slowing increasing. Yesterday is shows a slight jump. In a couple of days I'll be able to tell if it was an anomaly or not.

Also, I wanted to give a special thanks to TCLynx for pointing the writer to me. It was a different experience to be put in the spotlight! I usually just hide behind my computer. ;-)

I kist popped in to post about it, and see it has already been mentioned. I forwarded it to all my family, and Joel, and Michael Buick, who helped MMRF start building the AP system (stalled for lack of funds for a solar system to run it).

Congrats on the press, Joel! You are now even more famous. ("...I knew him way back when...")

hey Rob, sounds a bit like me a few years back.

Ahhhhhhhhh, publicity...???? I'm happy here behind my computer just doing stuff...

I think there's been an increase in our traffic, I'll go and check the stats, see if there's a bit of a spike.
