Satan - I attribute it to the high name-recognition factor. 
I see that Satan is now posting over at LBMB again. Is anybody else?
(Oh, and thanks a lot, Satan, for posting something to bring more pounders over here!) 
Not me. One board’s plenty; two is too much.
I’m trying to keep up with THREE boards…but I’m not really doing any of them justice, because I’m stretched so thin…
What the hell, I’ll sleep when I’m dead.
Oh, Ghoti may have left the LBMB…swan song thread’s over there somewhere (Progressive Creation, I think…)

As long as he didn’t leave there to make time to come over here!

I know I just said I wouldn’t lock up this thread just because a few people thought it should be, but now it appears I’m going to have to lock it up because it’s just too danged big. As you probably noticed, the MB was “busy” for a while earlier this afternoon. It is likely, IMO, that long threads like this contribute to that problem. Unless the upgrade makes things better, I will probably start locking threads as they hit 500 or so messages, taking each on a case-by-case basis depending on how they are running.
In any event, I’m locking this one up. Because I’m locking it for length, anybody can feel free to start up a Part 2 if they like.

Don’t make me come back there, Satan. I mean it. I’ll turn this car around right now.

Well, this thread was supposed to have been locked, but probably was accidentally unlocked when we switched from UBBS.
Therefore, I’m locking it again.
