stephen_speicher Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 Thanks to Ash Ryan going on vacation, I was able to creep ahead of him and now I have become the first to make a total of 1000 posts to this forum. This post is my one-thousandth and I here commemorate it! (I can't wait to see this post appear so that I can see what happens after "Senior Member" status. Yikes, what if nothing changes! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see now that after 1000 posts I have become an "Advanced Member." How satisfying. Now I am going to go swimming in our pool with Betsy and my golden retriever Cali!

Guest jrshep Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Very impressive Stephen, impressive in quantity and certainly in quality, and I always look forward to reading what you have to say. Your posts here go a long way towards making this forum worthwhile. Thank you for that. P.S. I tried a bit of humor in my previous post on this thread; hopefully you understood. I may be right behind you, but the distance is in miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen_speicher Posted July 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Congratulations, Stephen! Is it okay if I call you "Mister Ten"? (10 posts/day) The problem is, my name then would always vary. Currently it is 10.3, and that will change. I think I'll stick with "Stephen."

stephen_speicher Posted July 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Congratulations Stephen! I hope we see 1,000 more from you. Thanks, Janie. I was phasing out somewhere around the 800 mark if I recall, but I seem to have gotten a second wind. This is a nice place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prometheus Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Wow Stephen!!! A 1000 posts!! Thats just exquisite. And considering the quality of the posts, I'd just like to thank you once more Keep Posting Hmmm, I'm on 99 now. Stephen, if you'd probably squint your eyes and gaze at the horizon, you'd see me waving Dinesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowzer Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 5.5% of all the posts on this BBS are yours, Stephen. You account for a much greater percentage of what I find interesting here. Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jrshep Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Oh, you're the one. I keep looking over my shoulder ... Touche' Thank you, John. I appreciate that. You are certainly welcome, but the gratitude is mostly mine. I got the humor, but the distance is not as great as you think. Glad you got the humor. You're past 1000 posts; I've just passed 10 posts (more or less, depending on how one counts). But perhaps you're right afterall. Who knows? After all, who can be certain of anything? 10 to 1000, the difference is just two zeros, and two zeros are no more than one zero, and zero is after all zero, zilch, nada, nothing, "no cigar." Therefore, there's no difference between 10 and 1000, and so you're right, I'm the one to watch out for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jrshep Posted July 31, 2004 Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Thanks to everyone for the kind words. Thanks to you, Stephen. It's a pleasure and an honor to get to read your posts, and I am always eager to read your latest ones. (And of course your wife's posts too. Thank you both.) I envy you two that you got to know Miss Rand personally. (I did actually see Dr. Peikoff live once. A treat.) John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pleasure and an honor to get to read your posts, and I am always eager to read your latest ones. (And of course your wife's posts too. Thank you both.) Nice of you to say so, John. I envy you two that you got to know Miss Rand personally. Well, we were not friends, or anything like that. But, aside from seeing her in action at many of the early lectures, I did get to speak with her quite a few times, and for that I remain grateful.
