Welcome, person with a delicious name! :td:
And I won't forget the way you held me up when I was down
And I won't forget the way you said, "Darling I love you"
You gave me faith to go on

Now we're there and we've only just begun
This will be our year... took a long time to come

I was over at TAF, saw this mentioned during the Dawkins debacle, and decided to check it out.

The feeling is mutual. I was going to say "more than mutual", but I realized that that didn't make any sense. Then I started to feel bad about times in the past that I'd used the phrase. Then I realized that I should just shut up and post. Then I realized that "shut up" didn't make any sense, since I wasn't actually talking. Then I realized that my coffee intake today has been a bit over the top.....

When RDF melted down, several members posted at TAF, where I flop around; and one linked to this place in explaining the fiasco. I followed it, and here I are.

Another one from pharyngula via the RDF debacle, although I've never really been anything more than a lurker on pharyngula. As bad as the RDF melt down seems to have been, I am glad that it meant that I found out about this place. :woot:

A bit of a combination of the second and forth option actually.
I was given a link by PM, from two fellow RDF members, inviting me over. So here I am.

I voted option #3: I saw a reference to it in a thread on the forum I co-admin and decided to take a look when I saw the names of some of the members. Of course, the aforementioned thread happened to be about the recent RDF meltdown. Net fireworks FTW. :mrgreen:

I had been on RDF for almost two years, though an infrequent poster. I'll try and make a worthwhile contribution here.
