Gnomon - time to move on Started conversation Sep 1, 2010
It was ten years ago today
A bored worker found a way to play
And educate at the same time
And occasionally raise a smile
Gnomon was the name he chose
The one who points, the one who knows
On h-2-g-2, a-k-a the Guide!

I could clearly hear the Beatles, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band in the background. Congratulations!

Yes entries you should write.

I don't really want to stop the show
But I thought you might like to know
He's as entertaining in RL
And he sings a decent bass as well
So say congratulations to
The man we call a friend with pride
On h2g2 aka the Guide

The Eds kindly chose to congratulate me on the Front Page!
"Today we acknowledge Researcher Gnomon's 10 years' sterling work on h2g2 - well done Gnomon!"
Much to the disgust of one of the regular Researchers. It reminds me of the joke about the Manx crabs ...
A tourist having a pint of Okell's beer in the pub is joined at the bar by a fisherman with a bucket of live crabs. The fisherman gets a drink and ignores the bucket. The tourist watches as the crabs skitter about, trying to climb out of the bucket. He says to the fisherman 'Aren't you afraid you'll lose your crabs?'
The fisherman glances down at the bucket and replies, 'No, those there are Manx crabs. As soon as it looks like one of them is going to get out, the others gang up and pull him back down to their level.'

I'm afraid I just don't see what's so special about you that you are singled out when other people have been here longer, and done more for the site.

Aww... Come on, Mina. Don't spoil things. Gnomon and Galaxy Babe have both done some great Entries. It's nice that you want to give recognition to another Researcher, but don't spoil the fun for another.
