Hello everyone,

After 17 years, I'm taking an early retirement offer from my employer and 
my last day at Honda is tomorrow, Sept. 4.   Its been a fantastic journey 
- being part of the team to set up the first RIM program here at the 
manufacturing group in central Ohio; designing and building our on-site 
records center, developing retention schedules,designing and implementing 
an email retention management tool, developing a new 'big bucket' 
retention schedule, assisting other Honda facilities in North America set 
up or improve their RIM programs, introducing micrographics and imaging 
systems, developing and conducting training and auditing ....  Not often 
does one get the opportunity and resources to pretty much be able to do 
whatever it takes to set up a terrific RIM program.  And of course, the 
great bunch of people I've had the honor of hiring and training to make it 
all work so well.  My replacement will be Scott Whipps who came over from 
IT to take over my responsibilities.  He will be joining the listserv 
shortly.

I want to thank everyone on the listserv for their great advice and 
guidance over the years.  While I haven't been a regular public 
contributor, (I usually reply directly to others), I have, like most 
listserv members, greatly benefited from the combined knowledge of the 
group.  Thanks especially to those of you who keep this thing going.

I'll continue to be involved with RIM, as I would like to work part time 
on projects as a contractor/consultant.  In a year or two, my wife and I 
(now empty-nesters since our son is away at OSU -go bucks) plan to move 
from Marysville back to the Kettering OH area to be closer to family.   It 
will take at least a year for me to get rid of enough 'stuff' to make a 
move possible.  I'm a big collector or various oddball things - all good 
'stuff' (however my wife uses a slightly different term)... a result of 
being hooked on eBay....

So, to all my friends on the listserv, in ARMA and at Cohasset/MER,  a 
heartfelt thanks for your support and friendship over the years.

Thank you and take care,

Dan Jones
