Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    The words insight and incite are pronounced the same. But one of them will get you banned and the other will not. Before hitting the Submit button be certain which of the two better describes your post.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Happy Birthday to the great Canadian ever.

I was around 14 years old when he came through my hometown of Woodstock Ontario....what a true legend.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Fox

Terry Fox ran the equivalent of a marathon (approximately 42 kilometers or 26 miles) nearly every day during his "Marathon of Hope" across Canada. He ran for 143 consecutive days, covering 5,373 kilometers before his cancer returned and forced him to stop near Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Over $900 million has been raised worldwide in Terry Fox's name for cancer research through the Terry Fox Foundation and related events, according to the Terry Fox Foundation. The annual Terry Fox Run, held in Canada and internationally, is the primary fundraising mechanism.​
 
Tough crowd, Trev. Buncha grammar Nazis. When I was a kid, we didn’t have HBO, but my grandparents did. When I was 12-13, I’d stay at their house sometimes and would watch just about anything just because it was on HBO. I would watch some movies over and over. The Terry Fox Story became one of my favorites. And I haven’t thought about it much since then til you just brought it up. The HBO original “The Terry Fox Story: Heart of a Champion”1983 isn’t available on HBO Max in the US :(, I did find a version on YouTube that looks like it was a bootleg copy filmed from a TV screen in 1983. Think I’m going to watch it later. I looked on IMDB and the lead, Eric Fryer, has no other acting credits. I find that odd.
