I am not a professional in this,  but I've always thought that "The Mythical

Gosh it is good to see all these old names, some of them still alive and
kicking... I have MISSED the high level of dialog the this community
generates... even when much of it is over my head... I have some perhaps more
profound reflections on that, but I am taking Richard Davis' advise and
pondering Rick Marshal's profundity a little while longer.
