Don't be so sure you're wrong.

As a matter of fact, he does know a lot of very personal things about me because many years ago I responded to a survey for an article he was writing. Hmmmmm. . .

And he doesn't even know what color they are! He's quite the risk-taker, I see!
Thank you, limey!

Yes. The message boards sprung (and grew) from discussions related to a column he's been writing for more than 30 years.
Nice to meet you, too, Dana!

You know what?
I was reading back through the Aylesbury thread I made.
Quite often I go there just to check what I have already taken pictures of. Before going out and possibly duplicating them. But a proper read shows so much appreciation and interest.
I'm used to that for other Dwellars. I've posted it myself. But to have it in a thread that I have created and I maintain - wow, it's wonderful. And it makes me appreciate - more than ever - what UT does here. And Bruce and Wolf of course.
Jill, you seem like a spunky kinda gal (in the Australian meaning). If you like it here, do ask your friends in too. We like intelligent posters. And indecent ones.

Thanks, Sundae Girl!
I have mentioned this place to a few friends, but our old board is in so much chaos right now, with not one but two spin-off boards people are going to, I'm not sure how many (if any) I'd be successful coaxing over here. I suspect that at least one of them already belongs here, as it was actually a poster from our forums who listed this site in a thread where someone asked about other message boards that might have the same feel with intelligent and smart-assed posters that isn't filled with l33t and "I know you are but what am I?" type posts.
And a lot more will see a link to here I included in the post that the administrator responded to with his apology. I highlighted some of the more pertinent lines from the FAQs here, as well as the fact that y'all have existed for more than 10 years with only 3 common-sense rules. So perhaps it will please you that your board may have played some role in our board receiving an apology that many have been clamoring for. Go You!
