Actually, given that we now have more members than the population of Lichtenstein, I think a promotion is in order. Prime Minister? Princess? Queen? Empress?

Yeah, she’s OK.

I’m glad to see this thread. Although I have not actually managed to interact much with Eve on the boards, I alway read threads she starts–they’re witty and wonderful and so much fun.

Eve is one classy lady.

This is the first time I’ve participated in an appreciation thread, but I have to do it in this case. Eve is the best! I love all her posts and all her threads and I can’t even imagine someone would think to pit her.

Liechtenstein is a Grand Duchy, isn’t it? I can sort of see **Eve** as a Grand Duchess. Maybe with a lorgnette …

**Eve** , your grace, wit and scholarly acument makes you not only an asset to the SDMB world, but to the world at large.

You are enjoyed, admired, respected and flirted with. One day if I’m very lucky, I’ll get to meet you at a NYC DopeDinner, and we can once again debate the untimely demise of the career of Fatty Arbuckle.

You’re living proof that geniunely good humanity transcends all.

I started an Eve appreciation thread a while ago. I said it then and I’ll say it again: Eve rocks!

</div>

I’ve taken the liberty of letting **Eve** know about this thread, as I do not know if she is currently reading the Boards.

As I write this, my random music shuffle has cycled up “Three Times a Lady” by The Commodores. How apt.

I’m afraid that I have to dissent from this uncontrolled adulation of **Eve**.

Let it be known that **Eve** has been known to steal french fries from fellow diners plates.

There, the secret is out!

My husband would like me to point out that, upon seeing the picture of **Eve** that **Shayna** posted in the now locked thread, he is of the firm opinion that Eve bears a striking resemblance to Marina Sirtis.

I have to totally agree. Same beautiful eyes, same elegant facial structure.

What’s _not_ to appreciate about her?

How much more classy, elegant, and ladylike can you get?

Not I (says the frumpy chick in this chair).

Whatever her title, it should definitely include “Grand”. Anything less would be patently inadequate.

**Eve** , I want you to know that you’ve always been, and will always be one of my favorite posters on this board. Work and life and all have kept me in occasional lurk/seldom post mode for some time (that and my tendency to be a thread killer), but I had to come out of the woodwork to let you know that you’re one classy lady. Period.

I’m always am glad to see you’ve started a thread since I know that it’ll be a fun read. The SDMB is a better place because of people like you.

xoxoxo,

Ivorybill

Well, I can trump most of y’all–my bf and I get to have tea with **Eve** next week at, of all places, the Algonquin! Woo hoo! **Eve** is without question the most erudite and charming lady I have ever had the pleasure to interact with.

**Eve** taught me how to do my eyebrows. Actually she was teaching someone else and I **Eve** sdropped on the conversation.  
\*Look Eve, it’s a mispelled word with your name in it. \* 🙂

She’s one of the few people whose threads I always look at.

And I forgive her for making fun of a weird sentence I once produced.

Anyone who introduces me to [www.lileks.com](http://www.lileks.com) is a fabulous treasure.

I don’t think that we’ve ever interacted in any way, but the boards _are_ different without that _je ne sais quois_ that **Eve** brings.

I thought of that, but saying “all y’all” would ignore the NYC Dopers who can hang out with **Eve** whenever, instead of having to fly there.

You lucky bugger. 😉

**Eve** ’s posts here show wit, charm and fortitude in abundance. You’ve got to be tickled all shades of pink to take tea with such a marvellous lady.
