You forgot me. "waving furiously here"
Six years here and all of them female, but I still get referred to as "he" in a lot of threads just like in one earlier today. Could be the avatar thing, I've almost always been the lion. Could be that I've never posted a photo, but do I really want to subject myself to the comments that the many teenagers here would have about an older woman? Maybe I'll dig up a photo from my youth and post it. I have had my name in my sig since day one, you'd think that would be a hint to some.
Back on topic, I came here after I bought my first computer because I needed help figuring some things out. I found the NoWonder boards after doing a search for tech help and eventually a link there led me to here.
I like the place for the number of people and posts and the variety of people, ideas, opinions, and info you can find here. Some have been very helpful with a multitude of subjects and many have been just plain entertaining. I even venture into P&N from time to time and actually enjoy it. I even enjoy the aforementioned teenagers, after all I have dedicated much of my daily life to their age group for a long time now. I like to try to help them out in the occassional serious thread if I can.
It's nice to see that there are even more females here than I had thought. I appreciate the list because I didn't know that a few of them were females as well. Now I won't make the mistake of referring to them as he or him when I address them in threads.
