Registered: Jan 2004 posted 09-25-2011 12:06 PM                     Woohoo! 7 years and 1000 posts on the fine Film-Tech forums. Yay! Okay I'm done celebrating. Some of you are probably going "I remember when I made my 1000th post. Back then I had to walk to and from the nearest computer uphill in the snow. Both ways." But seriously. Thanks Film-Tech. You've been a never ending well of information, entertainment, a mentor, and great friend. Keep up the good work, everyone!  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 09-25-2011 03:44 PM                     I made that mark recently too...I feel kinda proud of it.
