Unlike Max, I cannot for the life of me remember what it was, and I've never really tried to use the archives, so I won't find out that way! I would like to thank all of my friends here for the great welcome that I received, and for the entertaining erudition that has made this board such a worthwhile place to visit, and also makes it totally addictive!

How does one know that it's one's board anniversary, then? Do you all remember the fateful day when you first stumbled upon this place? Do you get some sort of reminder? I personally have no idea when I first joined the board, though I suppose I could locate my very first post. But then again, I'm sure I first joined and then I was awed for a little while before I mustered up my courage to make that first post, so even that wouldn't be accurate!
