Awe shucks, it's the least I could do for you guys...
I hope everyone can stay in touch and give some political insight from time to time. It was really a great balance of left and right in their CE&P forum.
At 10,000 post you get the "Certified Post Whore" classification with the pink spat. It's the highest honor we got... I'm 2000 post shy of that honor in my usual SELLC moniker, but I'll get there!
Welcome everyone! Come May 9th we all still have a place to get together!

The Goldberg Brothers - The Inventors of the Automobile Air Conditioner
Here's a little fact for automotive buffs, or just to dazzle your friends.
The four Goldberg brothers, Lowell, Norman, Hiram, and Max, invented and developed the first automobile air-conditioner. On July 17, 1946 , the temperature in Detroit was 97 degrees.
The four brothers walked into old man Henry Ford's office and sweet-talked his secretary into telling him that four gentlemen were there with the most exciting innovation in the auto industry since the electric starter.
Henry was curious and invited them into his office.
They refused and instead asked that he come out to the parking lot to their car.
They persuaded him to get into the car, which was about 130 degrees, turned on the air conditioner, and cooled the car off immediately.
The old man got very excited and invited them back to the office, where he offered them $3 million for the patent.
The brothers refused, saying they would settle for $2 million, but they wanted the recognition by having a label, 'The Goldberg Air-Conditioner,' on the dashboard of each car in which it was installed.
Now old man Ford was more than just a little anti-Jewish, and there was no way he was going to put the Goldberg's name on two million Fords.
They haggled back and forth for about two hours and finally agreed on $4 million and that just their first names would be shown.
And so to this day, all Ford air conditioners show --
Lo, Norm, Hi, and Max -- on the controls.

I honestly took the closing of the site much better, even if only Conservative comrades joined. I know I closed my account, but I wasn't aware they were closing down and I wouldn't even be able to lurk.'
I do feel a little cheap knowing I had been arguing all this time with Soros paid Chinese sweatshop people...
Remember that WDTP dude, the one that was always posting threads every day about some Asian leader "Wang-Chung" or whatever?
