My, I wish more people put this much thought in to their posts

If you add up all the characters in his post and divide by the numeric value of his join date, you get: 999

Well that's....well done indeed...

Also, this day is significant (at least for me) because of the new Beatles box that is released (although already sold out)...

That's why my post count is as low as it is.
Quantity is not the same as quality...

I guess that depends how you count the characters, but if you make this
8212005 (join date) / 8220 (characters of 999 post) = 999 (approximately).
But one can count with or without spaces, and neither adds up to 8220, it's either above or below that number. But still, it's kind of fun that the average of that calculation is 999 too.

Anyway, thanks for the congratz, and now back to normal by my 1000th post...

Wha? I didn't expect you back until Oct 10, 2010

Now you've done it, you've broken the cosmic mechanism of the Universe!

Oct. 10th 2010 aka 10-10-10 would require me to post only 8 more posts for the next 13 months and then make my 1010th post at that date... Not likely, even I don't post that little...
But maybe my 1111th post on November 11th 2011 aka 11-11-11, but not likely either... could be fun though...

Broken? Ever heard about the chaos theory - well explained by Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Parc, but showed much better in The Butterfly Effect. In fact, how do you know that this is not me in 10 years from now, who has gone back in time to change a thing, which would ultimately ruin something else if left unnoticed?

You must be using a calculator or something ... way too much math for my poor brain.

Do us all a favor when your in a resturant or a pub over there in Denmark for the subsim meet coming up (next week I think). Have a little toast for the rest of us that couldn't be there.

Looking forward to your report Carotio

I was not using a calculator doing my 999 post, quite honestly. It's pure coincidence, I tell ya....

Yeah, sure we'll drink to all you poor suckers who couldn't make it, READ: all you whose wives wouldn't let you go...

And yes, will probably add to the report by some photos, BUT sadly by some events, it's not allowed to do photos apparently...
