That last post is sort of alarming-- has anyone checked to make sure Pollinate is not in fact stuck like a ghost haunting the old forum for all eternity?

I can still see my personal messages. I have not tried to PM anyone, but am surprised I can even log in. Happy about it, though.

Congratulations, Pollinate!  I didn't think anyone would nose out Polly.

Damn bill-paying job!  I was amused though as I watched all day and people were still registering for the CHE fora even after Scampster mentioned that some topics were being locked.

I was still logged in at home.  I can see the new post markers, but I cannot see the buttons to reply.  I'm hoping that Pollinate has a similar situation.

Gotta say, more than a little jealous!

Also, Yeastie had the closest fora shutdown time and get the pot of quatloos.

So, just where is pollinate so we can award the award, whatever it may be?

No one has registered the moniker "pollinate" here.  Perhaps pollinate chose to start fresh.

Congrats, pollinate, wherever you are!
