I know you will all welcome Samclem as our newest moderator.

He’ll be fielding your queries in General Questions.

Please be gentle with him as he wades into the fray.

Does he get a cape with that title? And if yes, does it enable the user to fly?

Maybe he can prevent trainwrecks by acting as one of the damaged rails.

Just like in the movie.

See, he’s doing a good job already!

All of our staffers are super moderators. Some are super duper.

Actually, the rest of us are Super Moderators too, we just wear nebbishy suits over the big red and yellow “M” and sport non-prescription eyeglasses that don’t actually do anything.

Now, Sam, speaking of that coffee cup, there are certain traditions concerning the newest mod. So, could I get a refill, here?

It’s about damned time.

Now I can stop worrying about moderator coverage here and start worrying about more important things, like checking whether or not my books are arranged by subject in alphabetical order, or if I need more shelves, or where in hell the vacuum cleaner is.

This is a relief, this is.

That’s not a goat, that’s **Coldfire**. He has a thing for capes. And he looks like that.
