Welcome back Hank
May I ask all our members to please say a big hello and "Welcome Back" to Hank Hanna.
For our newer members Hank is known as "The Father of X Marks". Hank is member #1. It was Hank's vision and insight which, way back in January of 2004, brought us this special place we call X Marks.
I have asked Hank if he would be willing to write a history of X Marks as he remembers it. I think his insights into what was going on 10 years ago and why he decided to start X Marks would be of interest to every member.
I hope that X Marks has lived up to Hank's original vision.
I'm also spoken to Hank about producing an exclusive X Marks T-Shirt. One using our Logo/Crest. Stay tuned for the announcement when these will be ready and available for purchase through Highland Tide.

XMTS has provided me with a wealth of information, inspiration, more than a few laughs, and a family of online friends. Thank you, Hank, and welcome back.
