No, not a call to eat sweet and gooey baked goods..
Rather, this is just to help establish to my soggy mind as to
whom the regular frequenters of this not-quite-dead-yet
newsgroup are.
Obviously, there is Pen-NAH!, Steven, Daniel, and myself.
I think that Tim-MAH! might pop in once in a while. Most
others apparently have some sort of filter to alert them
when there is /significant/ enough activity to warrant their
attention. So, apart from the four I've named, might there
be any others, even if they might just be lurking?

Time travel is still in its infancy at this point and can not be used with any
degree of accuracy for stating the occurrence of future events, allowing
for quantum irregularities and Heisenberg variances.
[1] I edited your wording slightly, just to make it a tad more interesting.
In the interests of accuracy, I am just pointing that fact out.

Oh, by all means, go and buy cards, if that is something you have planned.

Tim-MAH! That brings the count to two Brits, a convicted pig[1]
from Down Under, Pen-NAH!, you, and me. Anyone else??
[1] I am omitting "illiterate" because who can expect spelling
from a farm animal. I used "pig" because he misspelled "oink"
as "oi". Sheesh! I used "convicted" because Steven referred to
it.
