    Landed the slippery sucker

    I finally landed the slippery sucker and made it into the top 20 on Riesel LLR.
    I'm off down stairs to "crack a tinnie" and reminisce on the last couple of years

    A can of beer.

    We used to get them in iron cans (tin can) but now they're aluminium.

    Congrats Dave on reaching the top 20 by the way

    I don't think I can chase down that much of a lead even if I switched my pharm to RS-LLR'ing.

    Thank you. Likewise I'd have trouble contemplating contesting your Riesel BOINC commitment.

    I am sure that blame-Bryan (sic. heh I'll pay for that on IRC) and Lee have benefitted from our cross project efforts so far and that our commitments have made a difference to the project and will continue to do so.

    Play on, AMD Users!
