That is, for the Latinists, "1001" in Roman notation. If you look at my current, scanty posts, you will see that my total for the old CHE was--well, "1001." Really, folks, I struggled to make that, knowing that the curtain was coming down. Made it, just. And to what kudos? Nothing much, but I seem to be the only one on the new Forum who posted that particular milepost before coming here. And many of those, still here, adding up and up, are far beyond that then. And now they forge on. On. Such energy? Where did mine go?
Anyone now posting who--then--hoped to rise to--what was it called?--posting official honors?--but now thrives in their >1000 thickets here? Such diligence.
I could say something (but will not--no, not!) or mention how active I was way back (about twenty years?) when. Does anyone remember "Ming"? Ah, yes. What fun. Where's the fun these days on The Fora? Oh, yeah--mild amusement. Flame wars quenched.
Hope you voted. Not sure if you're sorry.
Gratam in Clubhouse!
Yes, the clubhouse is in need of a party!
Who will start!

And to what end? The CHE is now in the past; here, I limp along far behind so many. Naming no names.
Felix postandi et trollandi tibi ad multos annos sint.
Thy subject 'felix' doth not agree with thy verb 'sint'.

I definitely remember Ming. Truly an evil overlord to fear and appreciate. :)
I cannot speak for others, I certainly seem to have less energy for fun these days. I could probably use some fun in my life, but I've been feeling some burnout.
