Otto Puzzell
« on: September 27, 2015, 09:11:38 AM »
As AutoPuzzles.com approaches its 10th anniversary I'd like to give a shout out to the man who deserves the real credit for it being in existence.

I may have come up with the idea but I know who is the real force behind it. His unyielding effort to populate the place with puzzles, his zeal for ensuring we always looked our best as well as his high standards for interacting with others set the tone here and are the real reasons this place has been a success. 

My gratitude to his tireless efforts knows no bounds.

Thank you, Otto Puzzell. This place would not exist without you.

What more can I add? Happy anniversary to all members past and present, and a huge thank you to the founding editors.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Still, it's Otto who really deserves the accolades.

Yes all credit to Otto Puzzell, but we should never overlook Karn Utz's contribution in the early days.

No apology necessary.  Considering where we came from, and with all of the detractors there, I think it's safe to say that very few would've thunk it. 

Still need to cross paths with you one of these days....
