Welcome to the eighth ninth incarnation of the popular Welcome thread for new members.

If you are new, feel free to post your greetings and salutations here.

If you are old, feel free to stop by from time to time and welcome the new folks to the playground.

Regardless of your current status, new or old, welcome to the Playground.

(Please do keep non-salutation conversations to a minimum, here, random banter is there for a reason. Also, be kind to new posters. I believe new posters are our future; treat them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside. Give them a sense of pride. stopmebeforeIquotethisentiresongwhatonearthdidfour thgradedotome)
