This is such a great turn out!
Even after reading just a handful of contributions, it's easy to say that this month's symposium is a huge success! Great variety of interpretations so far. This is SO good!

Each symposium is better than the one before. As I said elsewhere: with you at the helm we can't fail. Thank you!

You're well within the bounds: I only request early in the day because I block that out for the symposium specifically. After that, I incorporate links on a catch-as-catch-can basis. Thank you!

    thanks again Humorlife .....this was fun , and I so enjoyed checking out posts of bloggers I didn't know before
Welcome aboard, again, and your last phrase -- the one about enjoying bloggers you didn't know about before -- is what makes it all worthwhile for me. I love the idea of the talented folks here getting exposure, and I'm glad you're appreciating them, too.

Hope you'll stick around for future editions! (And sorry about the links going live-not-live... that's a site glitch, and all I can do is make my monthly call to the help desk about it...)

Welcome, and thank you! Good to have you with us, and I hope you're enjoying the other contributors as well. Apologies about the wonkiness with the links: That's out of my control, but I've alerted the help desk and the links should resolve within the next 48 hours.

Hope you'll join us next month, both in selecting the topic (we put up a slate for voting about a week before the symposium) and for the symposium itself!

No need to apologize: We're always glad to have you! I ask folks to post on the morning of symposium Sunday so I can keep track of their contributions and get their links into the master list in a timely fashion.

After the morning/early afternoon it's catch as catch can, but I'll happily accept contributions. Welcome back!

    Each symposium is better than the one before. As I said elsewhere: with you at the helm we can't fail. Thank you!
The range of interpretations is better than I could have hoped for... people really took to hear the idea that "first time" has myriad meanings.

For the most part I've only glanced at contributions -- Sundays are for collating, and the rest of the week is for savoring -- but even on that limited basis I've had my heartstrings tugged more than a few times.

And... helm? This herd of independent minds? If I appear to be at the helm of anything, it's only because I'm sprinting ahead while fleeing an unruly mob.

Thank you!

Big Thank you Humor for putting on this symposium for us bloggers. I think it is a great idea and great way to get to see other people blogs as well! I am still wondering when I post the link to this thread it doesn't show up on my thread. So I end up putting a link to your blog as well now.

Well done and great turnout again!

Delighted to help you shine on! For what it's worth, this is the seventeenth, not the seventh, symposium -- wow, we've been doing this for nearly two years (including a little time off in the middle).

Welcome! Glad you joined us!

Both in terms of turnout and quality, the symposia get better and better each time we run 'em. Thank you for your continued support and encouragement!

I love hearing that bloggers have found other bloggers they otherwise wouldn't have... that's really -- as you note -- is what it's all about.

Odd that the link back to here isn't showing up... is it just that the link isn't going live, or is something else happening?
