I remember all of these things and it really does not seem like that long ago. Seen all the movies listed here along with many others.
I must say I have enjoyed my time here on the forum. I finally got to meet Yoda this year in Pittsburgh which was really cool.
A lot of memories here and hopefully there are a lot more to come.
