I

I'm mostly a lurker. I have written just a few posts over the years
and have gotten useful information when I needed it. I appreciated
the information but even more I appreciate the ongoing conversation
(even when I don't understand it) and the community.

I have a 2100 which I use every single day as my trusty alarm clock
(which lets me snooze the exact amount of time I specify), and
sometimes I use Names and Notes or another application. My Newt
doesn't get a whole lot of use, but I'm fond of it, just like I'm
fond of this list even though I rarely have anything to ask or
contribute or enough time to do it.

Thanks, Andy, for thinking of recognizing all the ears out here!
It's been fun to hear a good number of them (us) say "I"! And thanks
to all of you who are active and have more substantive things to say,
for keeping the list going and the community alive!
