    Welcome aboard!

    This is a great site, with many, many really bright and helpful optical professionals!

    Dig in, ask questions, give answers, give opinions, fight, and be an active participant! It is the participation that makes this place so awesome!!

    And before anybody tells you.....nothing is my fault, and don't blame anything on me!

    Hi Shamanic,

    Welcome aboard. This is a great place for resources and catching up on what is happening in optical world.

    In Australia we dont have resources like this, so its great to get on and know what the rest of the world (or should I say mainly USA) is up to. Pity that there has not been many people from Europe log on (or that I know of)

    Enjoy your stay!!! I am........:bbg:

    Well, Sure'in there's ioconnell from Corofin who is my nephew. He's been a member here since he was 14 years old. He recently graduated from the University in Limerick as a bio medical engineer. Currently he works for Boston Scientific in Clonmel. You can find him using our search engine and send him a PM if you care to, he's a good lad and maybe you could hook up.
    Welcome to Optiboard and enjoy your stay here.

    Welcome to OptiBoard!!!!

    Fezz has some really good information to share, just don't take him seriously when he includes the ":cheers:" smilie.

    Have fun and ask a lot of questions.
