It tickled me to fire up my browser after leaving work and find that instead of the quotes. I wanted to pat the screen or something.
Thanks to all who did the work.
Love makes you do the wacky.

What is even happening?
Stompies: Did the writers who thanked us ask us to withhold their names?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Only one gave us their name, and I wasn't comfortable posting it out in the open.

Could I please get a password reset? I'm logged in on my laptop, so I can post this, but I can't log in on the new desktop, because I can't remember the password. Apparently I changed it last time. What the hell I was thinking, I don't know.
Thanks.

Because the person didn't explicitly give us (meaning the admins) permission to post their name online. Lots of folks are hesitant about posting their real names, especially when talking about their jobs.

but they're not talking about their jobs, really. they're just thanking us for the survival kits. i mean, i don't mind either way if we don't know who's thanking us, but it seems silly to withhold the info if they signed their name in the email.

I know you mean well, DX, but I think this is misguided. A person wrote a thank you note to a posting board and signed it with a real name. He or she knew it could get posted that way. In fact, he or she probably counted on it, and you're actually preventing that from happening.
Also, I want to know who thanked us.
