I wasn't watching recently, and I got called out for not making a reflective and insightful 10,000th post. I spent some time thinking about it over the past few hours, though, and here is what came to mind.

I joined this forum 3 and a half years ago, almost to the day. I have written a lot of posts, and read a lot more. I've learned a lot, and I've shared a little. I've seen a lot of hardware, and I've sampled a lot of software.

But when I paused to look back, it was the people that stood out. It's pretty amazing to think about it; I've crossed state and country borders to visit, befriended folks around the country and the world, and I have my razor families here in the Rochester area and around NYC. Granted I'm young, but I've never met such wonderful people anywhere else, and especially not so many of them, and I don't know that I will.

So here's to all the people. Thanks for the fun and the laughs and the stories.
