However, I just sent a PM!!!

Supporting each man on the top of the tide
   By a finger entwined in his hair.

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.

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

Congrats, pollinate, wherever you are!
