Can we get 10k signed? Last I saw was over 6200+.

What I am about to do, a friend created an AI that features, yours truly, moi. (Me in case you asked).

Do you wish to view this awesomeness AI? The AI did give me goosebumps and I didn’t get tire of seeing this again.

For those who want, just drop a line that you did sign the petition!

This AI is very surprising!!!!🤩

Sad to report the passing of a member. Justin Crawfis has selected memorial books and they've been ordered. I will donate them to the Findlay Hancock County Public Library. Please keep his family in you thoughts.
