Thank you all for the kind words. I'm still enjoying doing the conversions. While I still do some straightforward ones from PG and PG Canada, I'm also trying to convert stuff from scans at The Internet Archive and elsewhere. (I'm still attempting to replace my PD paper books with electronic copies.) Working from often rather blotchy scans is slow going, which is why I haven't been uploading quite as much as previously.
But I'm developing a few shortcuts and learning some new skills, which is nice.

Lots of congratulations are due to Harry for his milestone. We should all be grateful to Harry, who suggested that MR started a book upload section, and then went on to populate it with beautifully-presented versions of Dickens, Conan Doyle, Dumas, and other classics. Given that he prefers omnibus editions, his upload count does not accurately reflect the amount of effort that he puts in.

And Zelda is a muse to all our writers, especially of sagas. And she was the first person to start the great tradition of the MR meet-up, now adopted in several continents.
patricia, it's so sweet of you to return the appreciation towards others when you are being celebrated. you are one of the kindest people on this forum.

congratulations grace ! here's to the next 1000, and the next 1000 after that, and... i voted in your poll.

edit : see, this is what happens when you open a thread and don't reply until hours later.

congratulations to you too, dreams !

Zelda, we owe a lot to you. We owe you peace throughout the lounge and we owe you a sense of bonne entente that is respecfully maintained. Without you MR would not be the same. I really am one of your fans, it may not show but I am.
Each one of you posts is entertaining and almost all are meaningful. You bring cleaverness, wit and a certain freshness that is unmistakably yours. And all you do that we know nothing about, that must be enormous too!
We often take you for granted because... well.... you're always there!

20,000 posts, absolutely hallucinating!!!

Thank you!
