Yep, hard to believe 16+ years has gone by. Alot of good folks have come and gone here on FR.

I'll be 52 this year, I was 36 when I first logged onto FR, following a link off of Drudge Report. My first son was going on a year old, now we're taking weekend trips looking at colleges for him.

Lost count of the number of posts I've made on here. My two most favorite memories are the March for Justice and going to meet a bunch of fellow Freepers in Seabrook Island in South Carolina back in the summer of 2001.

Been on more Pro-Life and anti-embryonic Stem Cell research threads than I can recall. One very impassioned anti-embryonic Stem Cell Research thread went for several days and I was about the only person arguing against using embryonic stem cells (taken from aborted children) for medical research.

I remember that particular thread because I still have a few of the freepmail's I received from a few people on here who I respected greatly who encouraged me to keep up the fight. I had saved that thread to my HDD, but that was now several computers ago and I've no idea what happened to it. I kept that thread because it was probably the most impassioned thread I'd ever read on FR from both sides of the argument. Not a single post on it "got personal".

That was the good old days.

Been here over 16 years and possibly you can search the thread out on google. Have found some of my crazy ones that way.
