You have kept us informed and up to date in these very trying times. When many of us need to take a break from the chaos sweeping across our country, you are here each and every day, fighting the good fight. Your service and dedication does not go unnoticed. Thank you!

[0rganism]

23. Huzzah!

[intheflow]

25. Yes! And Elad, too!

I mean, it was impressive back in Skinner’s time. But EarlG and Elad are navigating a political landscape plunging into authoritarianism, just two random guys who launched a little website back in the day. You two deserve all the kudos. Much respect!

[Grim Chieftain]

37. Thank you for expressing the sentiment of this community.

We need each other more than ever,

[Sparkly]

40. Yes!

(And Skinner too, for his tenure!)

Hard to believe it's been so many years, and what we were fighting when we were fighting back then was just the small germ of what's grown into this monstrosity. (I still believe 2004 was the final turning point.)

Thanks, EarlG!

[sestina]
