I was watching.
Do I at least get a bonus prize for identifying the millionth poster?
Do I get a consolation prize for missing by ONE? Just goes to show you - one second of hesitation…
In case somebody has more details and can fill in the blanks to what I collected, here’s what I had:

I didn’t even know about this until after I posted it. Bizarre that it would be an answer to what would happen at 1,000,000.
For a guess as of 07-26-2003 05:15 PM, I’d say this is eerily close to the winning time and date.
Yes, that was bizarre.
And, hey, it couldn`t have happened to a better person. Congrats!
