    Congratulations Keith and Thank you and all the others that help keep the Creek going.
    I'll raise my glass to another 11 years and more
    I am not saying go kill all the stupid people......
    I'm just saying let's remove all the warning labels and let the problem sort itself out.

    David,

    Thanks and I didn't even notice my post count until you mentioned it. I probably have about 30,000 Private Messages here as well

    Bruce,

    Yeah, time does fly by and after eleven years I can't remember what it was like not to have a server on the Internet.

    Very impressive, especially since the number of page views is maybe 10 times the number of unique visits. Folks must be finding things of interest.

    Fond memories indeed. Wow, it's been quite a while, though my 11-year anniversary with SMC isn't for another 4 days. I guess I was a little slow to get on board when Wayne announced he was draining the Pond.
