A big thank you to all commentators here and to the lurkers too. 1.280 million pageviews and 100,000 comments - quite a decent achievement for all of us.
A special thanks to Uncle $cam for all the good links and remarks he leaves for us. I am really happy that you are the one who broke the hundred-thousand mark.
Cheers!

I think we should all chip in and buy him a new toaster oven or something...

Thanks for the toaster oven, but I need something different. Maybe I'll ask for some chip-in in a few days ...
Meanwhile let me offer you some virtual drink ...
cheers! Mine will be ...hmmm... red wine...or whatever else is going to sip.

That said, I wonder how Bill Montgomery is doing these days. All the best wishes from one of your dot.com frog spawns.

Couldn’t have happened to a more venerable commentator in my opinion.
Thanks Uncle $, for the years of sageness and participation;
but not to diminish from all the others who make this extablishment so vibrant and pertinent.
Cheers to b.

Congrats B, thanx to you and the many thought and insightful contributions of its barflies, MoA would have to be my favorite blog.
I look very much forward to the next 100K comments.

Chapeau, my friends, chapeau... Such a pleasure - sometimes bitter, but medicine is bitter - to drink here.

I first came over to MoA when Billmon stop posting comments. Got hooked. Yes, the Blog is good, but what keeps me coming back is intellectual quality of the comments. Good job, one and all.

De-lurking to offer my congratulations on this milestone (kilometerstone for those of you not in the US). I am consistently amazed and awed by the intelligence and insights of Berhhard and the rest of the folks who post here. MoA is always my first stop in the morning before browsing DKos and other blogs.

b, uncle, all magnificent commenters-
a thousand thanks.
That lost in a maze feeling, without fox or friend to give a nod or point to pharos, comes over me whenever days get too busy to drop by Moon for a cool refresher.
Caring and informed thought from so many compass points renews hope. Music and art raise fresh winds for tired spirits. b's breadth and depth of analysis never fails to amaze.
A round for all. skol!

B. do you need or would you like some money for running MoA? It must cost, besides your time and intelligence.
Now that I've toasted all a good few times I can fumble for a check book and someone can lend me a pen.

Pálinka for all!
Egészségedre!

A huge 'Way to Go, MoA gang!' from one of the lurkers who never comments. I've been hitting this blog ever since Billmon pointed us malcontents and 'questioners of authority' here. The great commentary keeps me coming back.
b, keep up the fantastic work. And let us know if we can help with the money.
