That’s right pieces_of_me has got to 10,000 posts some of which were long most of which were emoticons, some of them were rude, most of them were tedious, a couple of them gotted potd under them and pretty much all of them didn’t. I’m gonna let pieces_of_me have a sabbatical of sorts for a while, during which time I should like to satisfy myself with various statistics based on posts and pms and whatever else I can encourage myself to study. I like stats, I actually studied mechanics rather than stats whilst in education, but I have since come to realise something. Whereas mechanics destroys our atmosphere, stats help people make up new news stories every day about the same old topic, and so as not to make it tooo boring.

So yes, in the almost dead tradition of those before me, I shall invite you to ask me questions about whatever you like, which I shall endeavour to respond to in answer form, where acceptable.

Also thank you for putting up with me and in most case welcoming me and helping me whittle away my days in work until I retire a poor and unachieved man.
