Please Welcome Ravinder Singh to the Moderation Team

On this special Happy News Year day, 1 January 2019, I am pleased to promote Ravinder Singh to UNIX.COM Moderator, for at least the following reasons:

Ravinder Loves UNIX.COM
Ravinder has 1,372 Thanks, which puts him in the Top Ten in that important single category.
Ravinder is one of the few people here who have consistently made very positive suggestions to improve the forums for users, which is I why I awarded him the first "Formulator" badge, for his many ideas for the forums over the years.
Ravinder has been very patient with me. Even when he has great ideas and it takes me months to implement, he is always happy, positive to the forums and toward me. He has a very positive attitude.
Ravinder has a deep desire to code projects here, but his 13 hours work days and long daily drive to work in Bangalore does not give him much time (so I don't expect he will actually become a coder anytime soon, but he has the passion).
Ravinder has 2,837 posts, which is quite a lot, when you think about it.
Did I mention, Ravinder has a passion for this site?
Ravinder wants to be a Moderator. I don't need to ask him if he wants to Mod. Being a Mod here has been his goal for many years.

For all the reasons above and more, Ravinder deserves to be the first person promoted to Moderator in 2019. 1 January is a special day and so I have waited until Happy New Year's day (Bangalore time where Ravinder is working today) to promote Ravinder to the Mod Team.

Please join me in welcoming Ravinder to the Mod Team. Congrats Ravinder!

Hi Ravinder,
Congratulations on the well deserved promotion. Welcome to the world of moderating!

I look forward to your continued participation on UNIX.com with your new capabilities.

Cheers,
Don

P.S. Note that from where I sit (here in California), you were promoted in 2018; not on New Year's Day in 2019. Nonetheless, Happy New Year to everyone out there!

Haha.. It's 11:30 AM Bangalore time, New Years Day.

I was actually going to promote Ravinder at the clock stroke of Midnight Bangalore time, the first tick of the clock on New Years Day 2019 Bangalore time, but it was 1:30 AM (I am 1 1/5 hours ahead of Ravinder) here and I fell asleep!!
