Congratulations and thanks, too, Paul. :D

Lessee, four years, 16000 times how many words average, say 40, that's 640,000 times how many keystrokes per word, five average makes 3,200,000 and, now that's four years times 24 times 3600, ummm, around 126 million, divide that by ... hmmmmm ... carry the 4 ... Yeah. :shock:


That's a keystroke every 40 seconds of every minute of every hour since you joined Paul. :shock: :shock:

Congrats mon ami. You have given us a taste of everything Rickenbacker and more and the vast majority of us have delighted in every word that you selected with the great care and deliberation that you apply to all of your work. :D Thank you for the pictures and the memories that you stir. I am looking forward to many more posts to come.

When I joined the RRF not that long ago, Paul was the very first to extend the hand of welcome and to take time to share a private introduction to the board with me. His kind words of welcome and initiation confirmed what I already suspected, that this is one of the nicest, smartest and best-looking groups that I could find anywhere online to hang out with. And the fact that we all love our ricks ... hmmm ... coincidence or synchronicity?

I thought 16K was going to be some obscure US customs regulation you were about to lampoon... :? Then I read on!

Congrats Paul, and many thanks for your massive contribution to the RRF and for the advice and assistance you provide to members both on and off line. You're one of life's true gentlemen!

The RRF stand to applaud:
