I noticed a fairly prominent typo. I believe it should read:

all links by RESTED GAL:

Thank you for just one more of your selfless gifts that allow us to make the most of all the random bits of wisdom scattered across this board.

Your posts invariably are some pleasing blend of inordinately helpful, well informed, scientifically valid, cordial, and humorous. Your prolific posting has placed you upon a prestigous precipice: Five Grand!!!

RG is closing in on 5,000 posts, and it is worth celebrating. Let the countdown begin. You are far too humble to seek recognition, but you certainly do deserve it.

Thanks Laura,

Very handy list.

Well, you've definitely earned it!

I endorse Catnapper's idea to put this under the Yellow LightBulb.

Hooray for blarg's Link Rat Extraordinaire kudos. An award richly deserved!
