The moderators can correct me if I am wrong, but I actually believe I was one of the first 10 members.... maybe earlier than that!
Never pay much attention to join dates unless some one is a newbie - like to make them feel welcome - so it was a bit unusual for me to compare our register/join dates. I did recall that you were one of the earlier members -those of us "long in tooth" around these parts.
You first registered 6/29/06 and I did my thing 5/21/06 - wonder how many actual registered users existed at that time other than Mike and John and a core group of others - don't know a way to find out other than if John might have such records. I'm not sure where I 1st heard of OCDO. Maybe it was through the grapevine on VCDL. :lol:
Darn you can find most anything on the internet at warp speed. OCDO was put together and launched in 2004, but can find no reference to the numbers of members/registrants during that year.

Back OT - looks like the OP is good to go with his Pa. permit. Maybe the Clerk's office will expedite the processing, though they are under no obligation to do so.
