Gnomon - time to move on Started conversation Jun 17, 2019
Despite not contributing much to this site over the last couple of years, I've gradually got a few leftover entries into the Guide and have finally reached the total of 250 solo edited entries. I've got a new badge on the Pliny version of my Personal Space.

Congratulations! and thank you very much.
Out of all the Entries you have written, do you have any particular favourites?

Congratulations!
I’ve been stalled in the nineties for a few years now. It’s difficult to get motivated to get to 100 when no-one reads or comments on them any more.

That reminds me of some topics that I should get busy with.
Butterfly gardens
Rain gardens
more recipes
The thing is, I'm living these topics, so info is fresh in my mind

Favourites? There are so many. I'll pick out five:
A3251693 Curved Space and the Fate of the Universe. I thought this was a reasonable attempt to explain a complicated subject - non-Euclidean geometry.
A1029313 They Discovered America - a light-hearted look at Columbus and the explorers who found America before him
A22808243 The Story of Yogh, particularly because of the last line
A47800217 Talking With Cats - an entry written in about an hour as a demonstration of how to write an entry
A87845494 Living on Jupiter - a favourite subject of mine - the colonisation of space.

"no-one reads or comments on them any more"
If you read and comment on others', then others will read and comment on yours...?
Might be worth a try - you only need 5 more for the 100

Thanks Gnomon - that is an excellent Top 5 In particular, I didn't know about Yogh, and the pronunciation of Menzies

Well done Gnomon.
Go on Icy, get to 100 – or at least finish off your wallpaper patterns entries. Every single time I've logged in since 2014 I see all your pictures in the Pending box.

Oh, and wouldn't it be nice to have the possibility to correct -- this tablet is writing what it wants, mit what I intend. it is of course 250 we're celebrating.

Of course, a wayward tablet that brought me coffee and my newspaper would be welcome. I doubt that they ever get *that* wayward, though.
