CONGRATULATIONS, Jamie! 7 years is a long time. Time *does pass quickly, though, - especially the older we get - *indeed so quickly I'd forgotten it'd been nine years past last month since I myself, joined ! Together we've seen many changes, you and I ... including the departures of the stalwarts you've mentioned - each of whom will be remembered for having brought his own individual style to our midst. Okay ... ... sometimes we'd disagree with their views but 'free speech' is what makes forums like ours tick, after all.
