I took a silly bit of a wiki-walk today, though it had nothing at all to do with a wiki. From gmail to LinkedIn to phoning a stranger and setting up a lunch appointment, then paging through other strangers and finally remembering a long lost love. I see Jutta is still at Google, bless her, and the Halfbakery lives on!

I'm positively elated, and seek your down-votes for my non-idea. Thank you so much, all of you, for preserving (and/xor persevering) this pure, lovely example of black-on-white human wonder.

<whisper> I'm back. </whisper>

       Take that bone, you old bonehead. How dare you go astray? You are now going to be sentenced for your unforgivable behavior.   

       I sentence you to however long it takes, non-stop, no break reading of all [Vernon's] ideas, back to back.   

       We shall see you in another 3 years. Bon Voyage.

       Welcome back, stranger! <OR>
Welcome back stranger!

       [blissmiss], what? Only the ideas? Not the annotations to them, as well?

       Welcome back. How long has it been?

       I am just so disproportionately happy, inordinately so. Thank you so much for the bones, my friends.   

       I'll not take leave 3 years at a time again, bliss - I only get to do this once, y'know? And, um, may I just read the ideas (including annotations, naturally) since last I was here? ... I'd better stretch out and warm up my reading eyes.   

       It's been approximately 3.35342 years. I should have timed it to be 3.14159265 instead. Ah, well.
