A couple quotes of significance:

I know I never even thought about how long the site would last when we first created it!)

<<<HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY, TRADER'S DEN!>>>

I hated that they would be buried over time and wanted to create a topic that will likely also get buried, but maybe help preserve the importance of this date.

Thank you U2Lynne for creating a haven and a home for the people and the music,
Thank you sidewindersf for reminding all of us just how close we came to losing that home, and
Thank you Alex, John, and Eric for taking the reins so the site can live on!

Happy 20th B-day!

I wish you (and us as well) at least 666 more years of healthy life!

Leave it to OB for B-Day wishes!

Happy belated birthday! I joined the site about 3 weeks after it started (I'm #335). I just logged in after a couple months, and had no idea the site was in danger of closing.
