This is such sad news Brenda.

I was hoping that someone would step up and help out so that it wouldn't come to this.

The NPEPA site has been a terrific source of unbiased information, and I have personally recommended the website to many people over the past months.
The original website was the first one I found on the internet when I started looking for information on BPI, and I will never forget some of the 'chats' with Jen, Hazey, Tbaby and all the others in the chatroom attached to the old site...I REALLY miss the laughs we all had!

Karen is right; it is a very sad day for the BPI community worldwide.

Good luck in whatever you are planning to do next Brenda, and thanks for everything you have done and provided for us.

Best wishes
