    Sometimes sticking to a threads original "purpose" is sidelined...and that's OK...I think.

    Torunn,

    I've spoken to Ice Cold/ChessPraxis on the phone. He is a great guy, I don't think he would mind what you had to say at all. After all the object of the game was to keep the thread on top. 😉

    GBS,

    Remember we did away with the Penny. Got to be "5 cents" worth now. I know it just doesn't seem the same expression we been using all these years. 😉

    Proudly announcing that I am free at last. I am no longer stuck here. The STG has proven to be resilient beyond any and all countering resistances. I realize that it doesn't need me now and never did. This is exhilarating.

    Ice Cold would have been proud - this is a viable thread, unparalleled as far as I know.

    Sure you are needed, you been here from the start! I was away for quite awhile from the forums, and very surprised when I came back that it was still going strong. It really did catch on.
