Many more? What did I miss?

Firefly post 7971 was the one I noticed. I don't think there were others.
Thing is, that post is really no different than posts we've had hyping Fury's Fanatics and the Minearketeers.
I'd say the difference was that the Fury's Fanatics and Minearketeers posts were usually in the treads for the shows those people write for, and usually in the context of a "trying to get to the 300th member" thing or a drawing or something like that, or just a one-sentence thing. Not a whole paragraph added onto an unrelated post.
Yeah -- the only difference is that it's a new person. In fact, someone should suggest she put it in the link section, if it's not already there.
OK, tiny, tiny nitpicky thing-- could we please, please change the blurb on the front page from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Firefly" to "Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Firefly"? Please? Is there a reason it's not there-- does ita not like serial commas?
Isn't the former grammatically correct as well?
Yes.
They're both right, and I didn't compose the text.

Actually, it's an arbitrary choice.
However, all decent, non-pagan, well-raised writers make the correct arbitrary choice. That of the serial comma.
Fortunately, we of the FCSC(R) do not burn heretics at the stake.
We do, however, empty our pencil sharpenings into their bedclothes.
