Today, I was thinking about what one single decision may change: what impact it had on my life, that one moment when I actually filled in my user name and all the required fields and hit the registration button. With that, perhaps simple step, the Downs opened for me, I made my place here, and got to know all you wonderful people around here. I am really happy that there was, two years ago, a 15th November in my life...

Well happy Deathday Legate! I'm certainly glad that you made the decision to join the Downs, you're a Tolkien genius and have opened my eyes to the deeper meaning of Tolkien's work! I hope that you stay around for many more years to come, and that you continue to be an inspiration in the discussions here. Cheers!

I just noticed, mine was over a week ago. One year and counting.

Yup, seconded. And, Eönwë... only a year? Man, you made an impact, or at least I get the feeling as if you have been around for much longer...

Is that supposed to be a compliment or an insult?
