80,000 posts over 20 years. Who'da thunk it? Thank you, Founders/Admins. Thank you friends...

And as I am a night owl, let me quote Edna St. Vincent Millay…

“My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends—
It gives a lovely light!”


May lovely light follow you all.
