The former "ils" dropping by to say "Hello"

I was formerly known as "ils" on these boards before I took a long hiatus. A bit of nostalgic mood moved me recently to reach out to Mark about popping back in to talk about... well, things and stuff, and stuff, and things and... things. (I also have a con-langery type thing that I've been working on, and I know few better venues than this to get feedback on it.) For anyone who remembers me from Ye Olden Days: hello, and I hope you're all well. I look forward to reconnecting.

It's great to see you again!

Pabappa: ils never shared a lot of his work, relatively speaking, although he did have a really interesting conculture project at one stage.

When I think back over my many years on the ZBB and the meaningful discussions I've had here which have helped shape my thinking and make me a better person, a handful of names rise to the top of the list. Yours is one of them, ils. It's good to see you back.

Hello ils! Sometimes I think about how long this board has survived and it shocks me. I always valued your contributions. I remember being shocked at how much you argued with Zompist about the Iraq War - I was naive then. You have always been a wise and welcome voice here.

Yeah, it's wild to think how long this place has been around. I've been on the ZBB since 2003 – that's 16 years! And I certainly remember you ils/ekesleight. Welcome back.

Hi, and thanks for the long-ago responses everyone! Jeebus, what even is time, huh? I had no idea that it was like two and a half years ago when I put this up and hadn't posted really anything since. But I am back now. Proof? I've got a post up arguing with Mark over something. A very minor something, but still. :mrgreen:

I'm recent enough to have never met you, but welcome back anyway!

I remember your name from the old Zeeb but I don't remember speaking with you myself, so hello!
