Hey Randall Merry Christmas! I can't get my user name and password to work on my laptop, it always just remembers it here so it works great here on my desk top computer! I don't want to lose my screenname and posts again so I was hoping to use the other for the laptop but if that is not ok, let me know. I submitted it with my usual email.

Oh. That's fine. I thought I was in the Twilight Zone.

Hey, Randall...

I have a question for you...

Why, since you've been here FOREVER, do you only have 3,000 + posts? How is that possible?

Because I have seen just about everything that can be seen here...survived it all...and somehow managed to see Lindaland overcome and prosper. One of those memorable experiences was us being hacked and every single Username deleted--including myself--in 2009. So everyone had to re-register, and we lost our post counts.

I didn't pursue criminal charges. I don't know who did it, but it could have been ascertained with some research. It was actually flattering. Only sites like Google get hacked.

I remember that But, like someone else said, LL rose like a Phoenix from the flames. After that, I decided to change my username and start a new chapter. Until then I had been pidaua.

True. We started at zero again, but we grew rapidly. We grew more this past year than in the prior nine, if you count the active participants and not just the total registered members.
