She's busy composing herself after reading my tear-inducing tribute to her. I think she'll be ready to post by tomorrow.

I was hoping I'd need a cigarette after that 10,000th post. Pity.

I had to laugh about the ill-fated Yes off-thread conversation that led to Peter's premature postation. I very nearly replied after JP (which might have made Peter move on to something shinier). But I decided NOT to, because I didn't really have anything to say beyond "cool, dude. Me too."

It's fun to hang around with smart people. That's why I spend online time here. Peter, your wit and wisdom meaningfully enhance that experience. I want to thank you for the many times you've made me laugh and made me think, and especially for those times when your comments have made me grateful to share this world with people like you and your family.

Mostly, it seems to me you've made friends here. I think that's the real accomplishment.

Of course, I did it in 7,000 fewer posts...

ya, what tom said

now there's my 3000th post contribution of an eloquent statement for the books

Congratulations Peter! I recall that shortly before Stevie was born you posted that you might not be participating as much in the future because of increasing family responsibilities. Well, fortunately for us it didn't quite work out that way and we've continued to enjoy your wit and knowledge.

I extrapolate that on 12/14/2012 I might join your(and Ken's, etc.)10,000 club, but I suppose that you may have raised the bar to 20,000 by then!

Thanks, John. You're still on my want-to-meet list, so if you ever decided to break your anonymity, please let me know. \:\)

Cangrats again Peter. My guess at your gift sits in a sealed white envelope next to my keyboard at home. Get your camera warmed up!

John. In my books, you are already in the 10K club. You manage to pack a lot into all of your posts, so they should count double.

A tip 'O the hat to Amie and crew for doing something for Peter for 'the big one'.

Congratulations on the milestone, Peter. You're one of the smartest, funniest guys I've come across online, and it's great to see your dedication to the board being rewarded.

Of course, I do agree with Tom that there's a high concentration of intelligence around here. I would miss any of the regular posters if they stopped coming. Being that you're regular to the extreme, don't stop stopping by. You'd leave a big hole, and you know what happens to holes around here.

Amen to that. What I have in quantity, John easily matches in quality. I'm not ashamed to admit it. \:\)

Charles, this sentence is both heartbreaking and riotous all at once!

It's funny how Peter's post reminded me of so many of the fun times / fun people / interesting times / interesting people that we've met here on the Axiom boards. In the early days it all seemed a bit experimental - Ian answered all the technical questions! - but through the very gracious and giving nature of so many of you on the forums here it has become a very warm and friendly place to be. It's really amazing that this has been a largely self-moderated forum since inception (are we up to five deleted threads in 8 years?) and a testament to all of you, especially Peter, on how to keep it fun for everyone.

Peter, you make it real for all of us - and from all of us at Axiom, thank you so much! Looking forward to the next 10,000 with you!
