Welcome to the training board.

[Mark Rippetoe]

This forum will not be a Q&A with Rip, but rather a place to discuss things amongst yourselves. It will be moderated for silliness, spam, gibberish, and naked aggression, but otherwise the threads and the responses are yours. I will post if I feel particularly compelled, but my main activity will be on my Q&A.

Enjoy yourselves, play nice.

[Philbert]
