The very first Golden Boolit award to Felix, was given to someone we all appreciate and respect.
His wisdom, sound advise, and always respectful comments earned him that award, and it was truly heart warming to the many of us who have known the man over the years, when he received it.
The nominee I would like too present holds the same values.
Fellow members, I would like to nominate Floodgate for our next Golden Boolit Award.
It is unfortunate that many of our new / newer members don't know Floodgate, but the majority of us who have hung out here for awhile certainly do.
I would like to nominate this man for the following reasons;
Floodgate has distinguished himself far more than that of a "Generous Donor". He has been a mentor to many, our "go to guy" for the really hard questions, and a truly trusted source of information since our early days of shooters dot com.
His knowledge of the Bullet Mould, its design and function, along with its history, is unsurpassed in the Cast Boolit field.
This, coupled with his desire to help others and share that knowledge, has been a foundation upon which the Cast Boolit family has been built.
He has unselfishly given his time and expertise to both the beginner and the accomplished alike. His character, his pleasantness, and even his humor have often been reflected in the many well thought out post he has provided for our readers over the years.
A man among men who stands just a little taller than most, all due to his unselfish giving.
Thanks for the opportunity to say this, and do this.
I would appreciate very much if the "powers that be" consider this, and act on it, if they should feel my own feelings reflect the right thing to do.
Respectfully, Russ Baker aka "RBak"
