Dear Sir or Madam, if I were to rate websites, you would deserve the highest rating. It is rare to come across websites that provide such a wealth of data and are still so intuitive to use. Respect for the lovingly researched and informatively prepared encyclopedia. An excellent idea. Very inspiring and up-to-date. Keep it up, thank you!
