I won't be there. I have to work tonight..for a 12 hour shift. But
you can bug everyone else. Maybe they will all be nice and let you
stay. LOL.

Oh, that's okay. Once we know you and the IP address, we probably
won't care. A bunch of us get busy and stay logged in, and
occasionally say something. I am often doing stuff in the kitchen,
and come back and forth to the computer. Same with sky, and same with
some other folks. It's mainly knowing that it is you. I don't think
we knew it was you at first, and as sf said, that was the problem.

Yeah, Tammy did that once or twice. But we recognized her IP address,
and we realized that was probably what happened to her. Ranger does
it too. Notbob also gets busy doing some other things...

So come say hi sometime and tell us that it is you. And if you need
to walk away and do other things, or get bored by the conversation, or
lack of it...we won't really care. I think the folks there will start
to recognize your IP...
