And this is post #5,000 for me! Woohoo!
For those who are wondering, this puts me in the top 200 posters of all time (#171, actually, 18 posts between member number 174, tomb), and 9.3% of the way to reaching mousethief's current post count.

When I noticed I had 50 to go, I had planned to celebrate my 6666 post! Now I shall have to wait another 59931 posts for the next such sequence. Likely not as long as I think, in 1.5 years, I have gone from page 13 to page 6. And again, well ahead of many I thought more frequent posters.

If you ever find yourself reading the code test thread in the Styx (not proud to admit that I have done that) you usually see MT testing things there. Which is not only good practice, especially if, like MT, you change your sig quite a bit, but a good way to get your post count up, if you ever want to catch him.
