Happy Birthday OLL
- 08/13/98 01:50 AM
Join me in offering a hearty congratulatory blast of the fog signal to Harbour Lights on the birth of the official HL web site and the On Line Legacy. Just think - everybody in the world just got an instant jumpgate to HL collectibles!
And a big 'Thank You' to you, St.John for enhancing our appreciation of lighthouses and the enjoyment of our collecting habit, er, hobby. :-) It takes a ton of work and a keen artistic eye to create and maintain the site we're now enjoying.
All the best,

Agreed. The new site looks great, and I feel like I have a much more direct link to the company. Being able to register my pieces online is especially cool.
One word of caution, though: Let's not get all mushy-gushy now that we're on official Harbour Lights "turf." I hope to continue to see the critical discussions that have made these forums so enjoyable. Like any company, HL makes boo-boos (or at least decisions that raise eyebrows) and we shouldn't be timid about expressing our honest opinions.
But hey...for now, let the honeymoon begin. Bill, Nancy, Kim, Henry, Tori, and crew...welcome to the Web!

....and a big CONGRATULATIONS to John. From AOL to WWW to HL in less than 2 years, not bad for a landlocked saint in the desert. Cheers and thanks John....
Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray
A big thanks to Paul also for the wonderful photos...completing the entire line eventually is alot of film! (or MegaBytes)

Happy birthday OLL from me, too. John, I know you and your helpful crew will continue to get better and better on the new OFFICIAL site. When it seems like it just can't get any better, it does (as a result of the hard work and artistic touch of St. John).
Congratulations.

Happy Birthday OLL and many blessings to dear Saint John. This is truely a great thing!
Don't know if it's my imagination but the page seems faster now that it is fully "sanctioned". LIFE IS GOOD!
Happy Birthday OLL! Hip! Hip! Hooray!!, Congratulations John! A great big heartfelt welcome to the Younger clan! (yadda yadda yadda).
The reason we're all here is that we love lighthouses in general and Harbour Lights in particular. They are by far the best collectible I've ever seen and capture the true beauty, romance and allure of the real thing. John's "web streetcorner" has been a great place to jaw and muse and have some good ol' frank arguments.. err... discussions. I'm with Bill, I sure hope it continues here - especially since we now have a DIRECT pipeline to Harbour Lights!
