>I hope the point isn't lost that almost everything Rick Strahl does is shared,

If by this you mean he gives it away free, you may be mistaken. If you mean he publishes free white papers and other utilities, you are correct sir, but wait that kindof sounds like Michel (111 files, 98 KBs and 124 FAQs here, then he offers free UT memberships) :-)

>Did you know that a non PUTM member cannot see your profile?

Yes, but the email address is available and on top of that a space to communicate if email is not good enough.

If suddenly you are finding yourself craving these features, ask yourself: "Is $100 to much?" :-)
