My dear people,today is the forum's first birthday: the forum is one year old today. I hope you are all enjoying yourself as much as I am.
I shall not keep you long. I have written this all out for a Purpose. First of all to tell you that I am immensly fond of you all, and thatone year is too short a time to post amongst such excellent and admirable people.
I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
I wish to make an ANNOUNCEMENT.
I regret to announce-though, as I said, one yearis far too short a time to spend amongst you-this is the END.
I am going.
Ia m leaving NOW.
GOOD-BYE!
