Pippin, You can be "pipped" at the post - just beaten - say two horses are approaching the finish in the race - horse one is "just ahead" of horse 2 - but horse 2 finds strength at the last moment and "pips" horse 1 to the finish. Pipping the 400 - we just reached the 400 mark, so we kind of past the post. So we pipped 400 Sorta like that

All that matters is that we are still growing! 500 will be here in no time.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOH...see I thought the 400th member was named Pippin, but I couldn't see them and was so terribly terribly confused. I'm getting old and senile anyway, I thought this was just another senior moment. Great job fellow members! and hey Andy, to paraphrase Sally Field, "they like you...they REALLY REALLY LIKE YOU!".

Funny so Herm - you also just "pipped" your 400th post. So you really did pip it at the "post" as it were. Gets better and better.

Not really Herm - its like a birthday - the more you have - I reckon the less satisfying they are.

Hey Andy,
I love it!!!
I have not forgot about you my friend ... although it most probably seems as though I did.
Just too much to do with not near enough time to get everything done ...

On our way to 500! And, if we get new members in the coming months as fast as we have the last few months, we'll be there before we know it!
Onward thru the fog - er - rock dust, slurry, etc.
