Your self sacrifice and dedication is such an inspiration.
You guys are just awesome!!!!!
CONGRATULATIONS on a well deserved 1st place.
:celebrate :celebrate
And it's nice to have a competition where being in 2nd (or 350ish) isn't the big thing. I think we'll all feel like champs when the headlines finally say-
"Distributive Computing Venture Finds Cure for XXXX"
Thanks Jon, Sally, csimon ... everyone.
Well said, Qeldroma.
Seeing the dedication and character of those who have been at the top of the heap over the years only makes me want to try harder. I think the term "Inspiration" is fitting here.

Your dedication to the project, to the team and to the real cause & reason we all fold is amazing.
Thank you very very much!

A changing of the guard... "Every dyansty must fall but another will rise to take up the torch."
Chris will always be the folding
I wish everyone could have a chance at the top at least to see what it's like. Once you've been there for so long ...stepping down isn't so bad really. It's a great position to share. :bawling: j/k
I'll always be pharoah though!
I think this calls for a celebration!

She will keep it up as long as she can keep Jon from screwing anything up....
Great work guys. Now I want to see you make Top 50 of all folders.
Good show, my friends.
it still amazes me to ponder the power of the tools available to us, sometimes it's easy to see how fast things are changeing...I was an atari 2600 kid, and it was the bomb...I recently purchaced a joystick you plug striaght into the tv and has like 20 of the old 2600 games on it, I pryed my kids off the xbox for them to see..my older (13) most just looked at the big squares moveing around on the screen shakeing her head, before asking..if i would turn up the soundtrack...
my younger one stared at me for a moment before declareing..you're old. and running back to the xbox.
I was once told that if everyman and woman from the birth of fire were to work on one math problem, together all their lives...that they would not have been able to perform the number of calculations it takes to zoom into your average fractal program 5 or 6 times, and render.
So think of the data this day represents. :wow:
thank you both for supporting each other, and the team....but most of all the work.
rock on!
Now we need a new smilie for them.
Maybe a ball and chain?
First we would like to thank everyone for the kind words.
Second, it was only by chance we managed to end up in the #1 position, mainly due to csimon changing jobs.
Third, Short-Media being what it is, full of friendly helpful people going out of their way to see you right, we would never have been here in the first place.
It was here we found out about folding and the reasons behind it all. Starting with an old 850 Athlon and adding a couple Intels shortly after that.
As Sally and i slowly added more points we could see the friendly rivalry and decided to only run computers as "JonsHandbrake".
A few calls to arms to fight off the hordes gave us reason to add a bit more to the farm. Guess we went a bit overboard.
In a sense it's rather sad to see chris in second spot, after being on top for so long. Don't know how long we shall be up there for as it is always up for grabs. The main thing is who benefits...................HUMANITY.
Jon & Sally
Choose a title yet?
Maybe "The Princess and the Pauper".
