There are 3 visitors online right now.

The most concurrent visitors ever was 4145, on 06/01/2010 5:52 PM.

The Editor has gone 'bong'. I can sort of guess where you are and CR4 has collapsed. There are 22 (correct me if wrong) folks I'd like to buy a drink. Not saying why, but you all know it. 'We told you. and we done it!'. Awesome.

No probs - the clip and paste wasn't working too well. No matter. Totally off topic to CR4, but I am not going to ignore this one. Britland had its celebration over some silly wedding, this is way better. We can never make things right for victims of atrocities like 9/11 and others, but this sends out a really strong message; we will never quit. You can run, but you can't hide.

For what it's worth, every single person I've spoken to here is jubilant over this. American special force have pulled off the most amazing op. Having begun to doubt what Presidant Obama meant by 'yes we can', I can now see America is back in the game.

I sat in my chair cheering "USA" along with the rest of them.

I was completely clueless, which is not unusual.

I am very proud of our military personnel. That includes the hard work and sacrifices that have been made by our allies.

The fat lady has not sung, and there are many bridges yet to cross.

I'll just leave it at that.

Thanks for the sentiment Kris....................ditto.

I have noticed that at about the time you posted, the visitor count is very low every weekday. Today I saw it at 17 total, I have seen it as low as three. Something to do with people starting work, favorite telly program, people leaving for the pub...

I, on the other hand, have no life and I am usually here at about this time nearly every weekday. I need a 'Chick' (or a life!).

When you see numbers that low, it means we rebooted the system. Weekdays, we do it 3-4 times a day. If you watch, you'll see the numbers soar up pretty quickly in the 5 minutes that follow.

Hmmm . . . I have been missing lately . . . Need to check things out more often, especially since recent, significant events have occurred. People on this forum make above average, intelligent comments. Hear, hear to our heroes!
