Thanks guys and I am open for any suggestions on how one could go about managing and adding to the list so it might be available to all Members at any given time.
When one is not sure of something and a little research is required, this would be an excellent tool. Thanks Marcel LEED Green Associates InachiAwardsPortal: Inachi US Member of the Year Award 2009 |

I looked for that link in nachi.org and could not find it. How do we access all these links under Nachi.org? If that was accessible by the Members at will, would that not be a good source of educational resorce for them? Second, how and who is capable of adding to those links under the proper catogory.? Basically what I was trying to do or say in my post above. And no, I will not play with your log, Marcel LEED Green Associates InachiAwardsPortal: Inachi US Member of the Year Award 2009 |

Well, I figured we could start by consolidating and adding as we go.
I will work on it as free time comes around and hopefully keep the list to go on. Added new line item and link.
