Congratulations Randy!
At the Saturday night Gala at MACNA, Randy Holmes-Farley was awarded the MASNA Award. Everyone in attendance cheered, as we've all benefited greatly by his hard work, articles and willingness to share his expertise in water chemistry over the years.

Thank you again, Randy.

You Knot-Head Marc, how dare you post this here before me .... .

But yes, he was more than worthy of such an award. As they started the who do you think it is, I was almost in tears, even though I was told secretly 2-days in advance it was Randy. It was a hard secret to keep

Congrats Randy

This Knot-Head was shocked that it wasn't posted yet! I figured someone with an iPhone would have posted the news at 8:19 p.m. EST on Saturday night, and when I scanned the forum once I was home, there wasn't any news.

When Cherie was presenting the information, I was taking pictures of the screens. I expected one more item to be added before the frame changed, and missed her recap of his accomplishments.

This is what I got on camera. Comments by two people that submitted why they felt he was the best choice.


And his plaque.

Boomer, do you recall those accomplishments? If you do, please post them here. Or maybe I can ask Cherie to do so. Off to PM her now.

Now whenever I read a post by you, I'll know this is how you look, you know, with that look of disbelief.

Looks Marc like you beat Habib with more pics of me first this time

That look was the disbelief from your comment on PURA NitrateLock working in seawater. There is always pay-back from me Marc

From that PPT file, the two missing pictures.





I wish he would have been in attendance that night, that would have been perfect.
