If we jump the gun and propose before erin has all the details, we could be voting before we know exactly what we're voting on.
That's what I meant, but Jon says it better.
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I've just sent a long and question-filled email to the Guy Not In Charge But Who Handles All The Practical Details.
And I think not telling y'all the cutoff date is a good idea. Also, it means I won't be up all night threadsucking to make an arbitrary deadline.

I'm pretty sure DXM has all the threads archived already and could send you everything except the currently active or unarchived threads. Should we decide to go that way. And I'd like to.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
And yes, 'foamy' doesn't count unless it's in context. Unless you are angling for 'foamy' to be an interjection, in which case shout it all you want ...
Shiny!

Ooh! If DX has all the archived threads that would be FOINE. Thanks for pointing that out. 10 hours (I am not joking) in the office (a real office, not my home one, where I can do ten hours standing on my head) has be-liquided my brain.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Yup, I have every single one of them.

If I only had a brain...
What a splendid idea. I'll vote for it and opt in. (Because it's all about me, really, isn't it?)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Don't forget people, to get words in the dictionary, it's our published authors we should be lobbying.
