Welcome to the November 2009 edition of our eNewsletter.
As I write this, our Managing Editor Randy Noland and his lovely wife Bobbee are enjoying their first child; a baby girl. Ms. Betsy Caroline Noland came into the world just past midnight, both she and Mom are doing well. This is a very exciting time for the Noland's and everyone in the Machine Control Online family. There's nothing quite like the birth of a new child!
Last month we set another record for site visitors and we want to thank everyone for supporting Machine Control Online and helping us grow. Please continue to send your colleagues to the site and share our content with them. In this month's issue we have new articles from all our contributing editors and guest author Bill Crumb of Machine Control Technologies. Bill shares his vast experience in his new article, "Machine Control: Calibrating Your Valves for Performance". His last article elicited great response, I hope you'll check this one out.
If you have articles, case studies or want to show our readers how you use machine control technology, I invite you to send me an email. Everyone is welcome and together we will grow our businesses.
Growing the pie by accelerating technology adoption; this is our mission.
I hope you enjoy the newsletter. Please stay tuned, visiting us often, as we update the website daily.
