*delurk*

Hi everyone, been busy here. I have a job as a science journalist and one working on OSETI. They're both fun and if I have time maybe I'll devote a thread to one or the other.

*disappears again*

Haven't been around in a while (OK, a year.) No excuse, just been busy with post-Katrina stuff. Glad to be back, though.

Can't we change "Lurker" to something less disreputable-sounding like "observer"?

For those of you old enough to remember actor Charles Bronson, he starred in several vigilante movies, and was praised by one reviewer for "his incomparable ability to lurk".
