Too much of a morale hazard - I could guess tomorrow and then spend all night creating a time tunnel with myself.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

Can I put my theoretical $5 on AHB doing it tomorrow?

Morale hazard? a.k.a. work and in-laws...?!

I like the concept of this almost as much as the phrase "negatively excited" ( © WS1), which I have used with great effect on two occasions since learning it last night!

I dared to use the phrase "almost exactly" in the company of JDAW a few days ago. I think I was lucky to survive the ordeal.

Hey! Don't blame me for iPhone's overly enthusiastic auto correction of text as you type. I do get irritated by it.

But at least you got the idea - try using an iPhone to discuss the principles of principals.

www.theportforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=50000#p50000 is a post by me! Posted Wed 25 Apr 2012, on the subject of Delaforce 1977.

(Because some posts have been deleted, it might or might not be what was meant by ‟50,000th post”.)
