and if this is old news I swear I didn’t find mention of it in a search. I googled my username (and nothing else) and found a site that keeps track of us and our posting, for lack of a better explanation. Didn’t show any results for the SDMB, it seems to be a data gathering service. Needless to say it’s full of ads for things referenced in the thread. I just found it odd. Again, if this is something everyone figured out and talked about when I wasn’t looking, I apologize. ---

I just tried this for grins and giggles… and got lots and lots of links for diamond merchants, products surrounded by dazzling white diamonds, etc. I didn’t see a link for a site such as you described - even though I only looked through a few pages. I’m not complaining, mind you. Not at all. Kinda happy about it. 🙂 ---

Yep, brought me to a thread about support for the war in Iraq, posted in early sept. ---

Yes’m, I sure did - used quotes and everything. Just lots of links for diamond jewelry and the like. Again, no complaints. I remember reading about that site here on the board a few years back (now that you’ve jostled a few things loose in this rusty bucket of a brain). I think that was back before we had paid membership. ---

Huh. There are other rigbys out there–spelled just the same, but none of them are me. Not sure if I feel reassured or let down. ---

Boardreader is a forum search engine. I don’t think they’re up to anything nefarious, and it’s not very useful for its intended purpose anyhow. ---

I appreciate that right near the top of Luke Wilson’s page is the fact that he has a similar chin to me. (Edit: And once it crawls this place again I’ll be at the very top! I seem to get a strange pleasure from meta-manipulating them. Hee hee.) ---
