Since Simon used his clever powers of reverse psychology on me, I'm powerless to stop myself from creating this thread dedicated to him. Remember when everyone hated him? Back in the blanketing days? Today he is a changed man, and he deserves our honor and praise. If it weren't for Simon, where would we get our daily fix of creepy WWII b&w portraits? Where would we see Sanskrit used to make a point? How would we learn what the weather is like in Buffalo, NY at any time of the year without necessarily wanting to know?

Simon, I thank you. I doff my hat to you. I'm not wearing a hat right now, actually, but if I was, I would doff it. Whatever the **** that means.
