Let's have two toasts at this dinner.
One for those who overcame all obstacles (technical and social) to keep
the list thriving.
Another for those whose desire to protect the spirit of the list and the
values it represents sometimes leads them to excess.

Thank you, Brian.
What we need to do I think is to all have dinner together one day.
An academic and political programme is of course important, but so is
the ancient ape stuff.
In the absence of that large dinner, let us all behave as if we had been
to it, and thus had done the H. Sapiens equivalent of sitting around
picking lice out of each other's fur - you know, been introduced.
This has been called building a community, but I think we sometimes take
ourselves too seriously.
