    As there are now over 9500 members, it's time for a poll to see who can guess when member number 10000 joins.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Is there a prize for member 10000? I could always register a new username when the time comes

    I had the April vote. I think we can pull another 500 members in about 5 months.

    I also polled for April...it looks like most people join somewhere around the first month of a semester in school. So, considering that there is christmas break to about mid January, April seemed the right choice

    April, of course! My birthday is in April. And we all know the 10,000 member will want to join in order to celebrate my birthday.

    I picked march, because that's when my birthday is, but DavidP had to steal my idea. I would like everyone to know that even though he may of posted the whole 'vote-for-birthday-month' idea first, I really came up with it long before him.

    Although truthfully I think it will be sooner, February or possibly even January. Anytime after next summer will be far too far away.

    Beware the ides of march!

    I went for April... I figure a lot of people will be trying to figure out how to crack into the IRS computer system around that time.
    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.
