When I first saw the title "Top Posters", I was expecting something like The Farrah Fawcet poster or the Cheryl Tiegs poster.

I was way, way off the mark here, obviously.

I also had just dated myself.

Nice to see my name there but well, most of those posts include the problems I post here, I wonder when I will start contributing to PF. :shy:

Contribution is achieved in many many ways. You are certainly contributing :)

I suppose a topless one would be too much to ask for...

I saw her topless [except for the clothing] once at her house on Lake Conroe in texas circa 1982.

Thanks for the info Greg, I'm amazed that of all the posts I've made in 2013 (1000+) only six were detected. I feel like a neutrino.

I'd rather be a neutrino than an idiot. Good god. Some of those people have more posts in one year than I've had in 6. Which is somewhat amazing, as I spend almost all of my free time in this forum.

That's rather insulting. Frequent posting is not an idiot quotient test. It might even be a sign of interest in science. Don't assume you are the only one without a life.

Hey, I made top 5! That's quite an achievement. Hopefully the quality of the posts is up there with the rest of the names I see. Now I feel the pressure, better step it up for 2014.

Haha! Number 1 in General Astronomy and number 2 in both Astrophysics and General Physics!

Hmmm... Perhaps you're right. Perhaps I only need to post one comment per thread to prove the validity of my brilliant idiot assertions.
