I'm Just Curious, Where This Site Is Based, And Who Started It? Very Nice To Have A Site Like This Where We Can All Relate.
I found this answer on the "about" page.

I dunno. I looked a little bit before jumping in, because as we get comfy we tend to provide a lot of medical info to be "mined". But eventually I decided that if I were drowning and alone and a boat pulled up and tossed a life preserver, I would not refuse it.
So I jumped in, and have been pretty glad I did!
Some kind moderator sent me a link on my page to people living near my hometown in Chesterfield. I thought how sweet ππ
Same here. Just stumbled onto it one night when I couldn't sleep.
