I don't even know what to say. It's been a blast, huh? Three years of show and over two years of MI.net, coming to an end. Well, the show, at least. We here at MI.net are committed to remaining the best VM fansite in the Wide Wide World of Web, and this site won't be disappearing into the ether any time soon.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Thank you all so much for spreading the word and making sure this site was successful in its original purpose: educating new viewers so they could discover the wonder of &lt;i&gt;Veronica Mars&lt;/i&gt; for themselves. We expanded far beyond our original scope, and at times, I think we were mostly entertaining ourselves, but we hope you were entertained as well. Thank you for the e-mails; they did not go unread. We're grateful for having had the opportunity to enhance your enjoyment of &lt;i&gt;Veronica Mars&lt;/i&gt; and bewilder you with endless pop culture references.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Take care, Martians, Marshmallows, Neptunites, Pirates, Rough Riders. Keep chasing the storm.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Here's a list of stuff we updated:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Episode&lt;/b&gt; - Added quotes, details, roundtable review, cultural references, and cast list for &lt;a href='http://marsinvestigations.net/episodes/320/the_bitch_is_back/'&gt;3.20 &quot;The Bitch Is Back.&quot;&lt;/a&gt; The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.marsinvestigations.net/seasonsummary3.php&quot;&gt;season three summary&lt;/a&gt; has also been updated for the last time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Character bios&lt;/b&gt; - Updated the bios for &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/1/Neptune Families/MarsVeronica&quot;&gt;Veronica Mars&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/2/Neptune Families/FennelWallace&quot;&gt;Wallace Fennel&lt;/a&gt; (an all-new retrospective, a must-read!), &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/4/Neptune Families/EchollsLogan&quot;&gt;Logan Echolls&lt;/a&gt; (also an all-new retrospective and a must-read!), &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/5/Neptune Families/MarsKeith&quot;&gt;Keith Mars&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/35/Neptune Families/CasablancasDick&quot;&gt;Dick Casablancas&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/1608/Hearst College/PiznarskiStosh&quot;&gt;Stosh &quot;Piz&quot; Piznarski&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/1609/Hearst College/LeeParker&quot;&gt;Parker Lee&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/153/Neptune Town/Van LoweVincent&quot;&gt;Vincent Van Lowe&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/1661/Hearst College/SweeneyNish&quot;&gt;Nish Sweeney&lt;/a&gt; (now with added last name!), &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/1332/Hearst College/DillerChip&quot;&gt;Chip Diller&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/7/Neptune Families/KaneJake&quot;&gt;Jake Kane&lt;/a&gt; (I know!), and &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/20/Neptune Town/WiedmanClarence&quot;&gt;Clarence Wiedman, Jr.&lt;/a&gt; (I KNOW!!!). And the very final upgrade in Neptune goes to &lt;a href=&quot;http://marsinvestigations.net/characters/2170/Neptune Town/Gills&quot;&gt;Deputy  Gills&lt;/a&gt;. We salute you, Deputy Gills.
