Okay, here's a question: Where do archived threads get archived to?
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I wrote the description, and it's a thread dedicated to his work.
Okies. Why I asked.

I would only hope it could be "are we done" rather than "am I done". Thread titles ought to have plural personal pronouns if they have any at all, IMHO.
