h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Oo a holiday sounds nice
And we all know you really came back and popped in just to check on me...
It is strange with H2G2, its 'stickyness', although each day which goes by seems to see the site gradually getting older and older and furhter behind with where the internet has moved to since 1999 ... but there's something about it... Maybe nostalga I dunno Nice to see some of the ..... more 'experianced' (OK I dind't want to say 'older') reasearchers still about

You know, it's funny; as I don't remember Rupert my brain never lets me think of myself as an older Researcher. Not you, certainly, but not part of the priviledged few.

Well your u number isn't that* much higher than mine, you must have been fairly soon after rupert... I kind of registered in the old days pre BBC, but never did anything... then rediscovered the site again during rupert, and then forgot about it until I came across the bookmark and it was post-rupert so joined again
I got a bit of a shock the other day, when I looked back at the meet pages, and realised just how long ago now since I took over organising them afte the Italics stopped... I really didn't think I'd been doing it that* long Hmmm... actually it must be about nine years or more since I first went along to a meet... The one in Manchester I think...

2legs- drunk with online friends since 2001.

Correction:
"Not you, certainly, but not part of the priviledged few."
Not *new*, rather.

I joined in December 2001 and went to my first meet in 2002, Reading, then Oxford, then I went to Uni and the Birmingham meets happened. I only missed Rupert by a few months.

h2g2 has been in a low-Italic state for a really long time now. But anyway, this isn't going to be a 'when I was a lad' conversation. The grass is just as green as it was before, it's just a slightly different shade.

We do seem to keep coming back don't we?

Hello Pastey! Long time no see *waves*

It has been a while!
