Wow, thanks; and right back at ya, gorgeous.
A few recent traitors aside, we’re finally getting a bit of a Boston doper community. Always a pleasure to see all of you, with a special shout out to tdn.
She always has been. She’s very good at deep cover, though.
Like Dung Beetle, I like all of youse. Except a very select few who just get on my nerves. 
I said I was sorry!!! Sheesh.
I think I’ll have to wait for the “In praise of Dopers who never ever get praised” thread to be opened.
Oh wow, I am really flattered to have been mentioned here!
I have so many dopers that I’d love to mention here. I know I will forget a few, but here goes:
featherlou
SSG Schwartz
ShermanAter
whiterabbit
Soul
Sunspace
An Gadai
Antinor1
LouisB
QtM
freekalette
Autolycus
There are many other people here who will inspire me to open a thread solely because they have posted in it but I can’t remember right at the moment.
The cheque is in the post. 
I would like to add Cunctator just because I always misread that name as Cunt Tater and it makes me chuckle.
ETA: Aww, hugs for pbbth!
I thought of you when I was away from the keyboard – IIRC, one of your first postings concerned copyright issues (to which I responded). I’m always glad to see you stuck around.
Some others that have occurred to me, focussing on lower-postcounts, are Brown Eyed Girl (although we seriously disagree about seat-belt laws :)), rayh, and the contingent of tech- or math-oriented posters (like Derleth, Indistinguishable, beowulff, Rysto, etc.).
Oh, yeah…and DSeid. Always level-headed and informative.
No check necessary! I love seeing you post…I always imagine your posts in a sexy Irish accent. In fact, I might owe you a check for…umm…my active fantasy life. :o
Eh, you do know I’m a dude right, an ugly dude?
**pbbth ** a young woman, so rejoice sir, rejoice!
Aren’t you Irish guys supposed to smooth with the ladies, silver-tongued devils, all that stuff?
I’m a chick, so that works out for the best. And I don’t believe the ugly thing, not for a bit.
Mmmm, silver tongue …
And in three words, twickster has squicked me out about my own post…
Well if you don’t believe click on my site you can see a cartoon of me lol.
Anyway, to get this thread back on track I nominate Struan.
**nd…n8 **and olives–thank you. I like to read your posts with interest as well.
I like most of the posters mentioned and appreciate their contributions to any thread, really. This is why I stay on the Dope–the level of intelligent discourse is refreshing. I have learned so much from the Dope, not just facts and information, but new ways to look at the world. It has truly broadened my acceptance of “different” things/people. On the flip side, it has also helped me define my limits and become confident of them. Not bad for a message board.
Just because you are not mentioned here doesn’t mean that your contributions are not noticed–I hope people know that. I remember people at odd moments–NzingaSeated just popped into my head, for example, as did** Diogenes the Cynic**. There are so many people who come and go, but who add pertinent and valid input to threads. To me, it’s sort of like an intellectual train station or waiting room…
Sorry for all those I didn’t mention by name. I wish I were better at recalling names. 
PS-don’t you UK/EU guys know by now that you could pretty much read the phone directory out loud and we would swoon? Come on now, your accents are much more attractive than ours as a whole. Advantage: you!
I remember at least two people every time I close this thread! Zsofia, I haven’t forgotten all that stuff you did for me regarding my family history! And freekalette, you always brighten up a thread. featherlou, a post from you is always worth two from me.
We are indeed, to be sure to be sure, just lulling all and sundry into a false sense of security.
