2018 Year
I can't believe it has been 18 years since everyone was freaking out how the computers were going to shut everything down, because the years was only set up as 2 digits, and the financial system was going to crash etc. Wow, I am getting old!

This is nothing that I can change. I have no control over the site. I would like though to know your opinion(s) of this site. What are some things you think should be changed (as in added, taken away, changed), and what things should stay the same? Maybe if enough voices are heard, the developers and creators of the site will make some changes to what people would like. In the end, though, it is their site to do as they wish. BUT, if you had the ability to change anything about this… read more
