when is Prog Archives birthday ?

Good question - I was a very early member of the forum in February 2004, but I think the site as it is now existed from late 2003; I also seem to remember there was one previous to this...

Not very helpful I know, but if you have any birthday cash or presents you want to send, get them to me & I'll make sure they are sent to those most deserving.

Yeah, but this site really became good when I joined,  so I think my joining date should be used as the benchmark.

Well it's certainly a date few of us will forget...

Yorkie X, you missed it, it was last weekend.

Next anniversary we're going to let all those members who've been banned return for some fun.

Before that, we were still in utero, in the womb...   By the way, as Mr Garten said, the presents and cash should be sent to a single person. As I'm the only ecuadorian here and, hence, with no influences or physical prog-friends around me, I should be the caretaker of all those funds, as you can be sure that I will guard them as well as I guard my prog... In fact, let me tell you that I will actually fuse the two, and turn the funds into more prog!

I have no arguement as to the "birth" date of the site, but I would submit that the site became the sparkling examplar of overwrought & overwritten rants & off balance raves when my first self joined here last fall (Pantacruelgruel). Since then , new standards have been unfortunately set for long winded dissertations, unnecessary silloligisms (a string of words with sharing the same first letter), skewed humor, anti-snob lobs of good ol' Acadian common people talk to those who would belittle anyone who is not part of the "elite" (actually, this last part is sadly much & often needed in our threads), and the abuse of parentheses, quotation marks & other textbook writing stuff thingys.
Alas, at this time, nature calls, so I must go & rid myself of some excess matter in a more physical manner than writing allows me to.
