Hi new folks! Glad you finally made it!

New to the forums just thought I'd say hello and give a brief intro...live in Arlington, VA and doing some work with Lexus Magazine. Really into music and movies. Look forward to chatting.

Nice to meet you stringer!

I am Brian, I joined in 2005 then promptly forgot. This is my first post. I am interested in appropriate technology and changing the way science is funded so that stuff for poor people gets researched too.
I do appropriate tech research as a hobby but it never gets propper scientific review.
I invented the pulser pump in 1987 and I gave the idea to the community the next year. A pump with no noving parts. (it is on the net with video,etc)
I also made the "mechanical mathematician" so that a farmer or villager could make a parabolic dish with no math.
And dripper trackers for solar cooking
I have just started with the the solar design t-square with which I made the first model of clam shaped solar cookers for unattended cooking.
I am a stone mason
Where could I go on the forum to find people interested in that stuff and interested in cob? Cob building.
The solar devices can be found on the solar cooking website
Brian

welcome brian, you will definitely give the joint some class........

Hi gaiatechnician! I've got a friend who'd love to meet you (unfortunately he's anti-message board, so you won't see him here) since he's involved in similar projects. You should start a thread with some of your creations!

Greetings!!
 

Forgot I registered here due to my gnat like attention span.
Putting the forum in Speed Dial to help me to remember to visit!

Rock on, Vince.

Glad you came back twistedvincent.

Bubkin tried to steal my cool name but we will forgive him cause he's a freind.

This is my first time here.

Cynthetiq, thanks for the warm welcome :)

Dudkin, we both know who's the the actual copy-righter behind these names! :)

Hi Dudkin and Bubkin!

Hey welcome Dudkin and Bubkin, hope you like our little corner of the net.

Thanks guys!

Bubkin- you are a great copywriter but this is my name and i better looking. :)

Hello--MTT here--first time, not sure what's going on. curious

glad to see you made it MTT.

Dudkin... nice to see you as well.

hello! I'm portuguese and speak very bad inglish sorry.

Welcome to all the new faces! Glad to have you here :)

Hi! Stumbled here from google and it looks like an interesting place. I'm from rural Nevada.

Hi, Mexra! Welcome!

welcome hujo and mextra!

hujo, if you need translation we have a portugese speaker here with lots of time on their hands... :D

Whats up everybody, nice to be here.

Hey all, I'm a newbie, been lurking for awhile but just registered, I'm looking forward to spending more time here. :)

Hi Parsley Priest and citadel! Welcome!

Hello! I'm checking this place out...and hope to find some good conversation. :)

hi sirensong.

without sounding too brash, i think this place is the best place online for conversation and mature discourse

welcome!

Hi! A friend pointed out this website ages ago, and I just remembered it!

Im 28 yrs old and live on the central coast in California. Im very excited to be here and have some interesting conversations!

^.^

Good to have you with us, Pairofwings. :)

Hi, PairofWings! Glad you finally joined us!

Thank you!

I hope so! I just got out of a long-term dysfunctional relationship with another forum. You know how it is, when all is new and lovey-dovey, stars in your eyes, a feeling of security and warmth...then BAM, reality rears its ugly head. I hung in for a while, believing the best of it. Alas, it wasn't to be. I am picking up the pieces of my broken heart, and trudging forward. I'm trying a 12 step program: Forum Active Participants(FAP) and so far, I've gone backwards about 29 steps.

(Oh, and I have a strange sense of humor. I'm really not so torn up as my post sounds: tongue in cheek is a specialty):lol:

Welcome, welcome!

I hope you guys fit right in.

Siren, we're not the same as most forums, but we're not arrogant enough to think that we're unique. We just are different.

I'm just doing what's required of me.

hello,

i thought this was a porn site, it wasnt.
Funny kids here though,

Hi there callmenick and a_hero! Glad you made it!

hello everyone! im jenn from Colorado...new to this site :) can anyone help me put a pic up???

(Is this thing on....?) Ahem.... Hello, I'd just like to take a minute to say hello... Oh, wait, I already did earlier in the sentence. Hope to find some interesting and/or stimulating conversation, preferably in a language that I can speak and understand. If there are any Firesign Theater fans out there, I do speak Op talk.

Welcome to TFP Anal4cookie?... and JJSpittoon! :)

Wow, that magenta is hard to read on the default screen....

Hi jenn! Keep posting responsibily and you'll earn the right to post pictures pretty quickly. Or if it's something that needs immediate attention, just PM me and I'll be happy to help.

And hi to you too, JJSpittoon! I think you'll find other fans here too.

I figured
 

I figured any forum that showed up on the first page of hits at Google, as a result of a search for geometric opponency was worth checking out. Seems I must have figured this five years ago as well, since i discovered I was already registered as of December of '05. I don't know what happened back then to distract me but, I figure it was probably a computer crash, coupled with the general insanity of my last year or so in the valley of the silly cons. Now I'm comfortably settled in nicely geologically stable, rural New Hampshire and figure I won't be forgetting such an aptly named forum again. Given the geometric causation of my rediscovery, I figured I'd better include a few figures in this post.

hey, my name's Barbara, and i'm pumped to discuss things.

Welcome Barbaraahh. Jump on in the water's fine.

Welcome.

Just a note to let you know, changing fonts or colors is not encouraged because it makes it hard for others to read. We have many different skins and layouts and well, the plain entry works across the board.

The point of posting here is to get into discussions and people need to read your post to get an understanding of what you're trying to say. Fancy fonts and fancy colors distract and people tend to scroll right past it.

Show your individuality in your writing thoughtful discussion entry and repartee.

Welcome again!

Hello TFP peoplez

I have been a very long time reader but my other account from 2k3 has been locked out somehow. Oh well though, I don't mind a fresh start. Hope to see some of you posting monsters around.

Until then!

Hi, Epiphelion! Welcome back!

Hi, barbaraahh! Glad you found us, and I'm pumped to see what you have to say.

Welcome back, Trevrawr! PM one of the admins (cynthetiq, SecretMethod70 or me) if you want to try to recover your old account. We can do some tricks on our end to make sure you get your old status back, which will help you get access to some of the higher level boards sooner.

hey, this barbaraahh with my new and improved and more anonymous name miss_psychosexy.

Hello y'all

hi there!!!

Hi misspsychosexy... glad to meet the new 'you'

Hey all, even though I joined in early 2007 I've been MIA for a very long time, I started posting again then thought I should pop in and say hey.

Hello all. I am the Frito Man. Yep, I'm the guy who brings the chips to the store.

Everyone needs a Frito Man!

Welcome :)

Hi FritoMan! Good to meet you!

WELCOME! you're not this guy are you?

brand spankin new here
i trust youll go easy for the first little bit?:paranoid:
my posting style some may find unusaul
i am
however
addicted to it:wave:

Good evening, o TFP. I've long had a love/hate relationship with web forums in general, and after several frustrating false starts I'm trying to come out of my shell and establish myself at a friendlier forum than the last madhouse I was at. I hope that TFP can be the place. Cheers!

Hi mrmacq! Welcome. I look forward to seeing exactly what your style is.

And welcome to you too, Savinkov. We're generally pretty friendly, but if you need a helping hand, all you need to do is let one of the staff know.

Hello. I found this forum quite by accident. I love the blue layout. My interests are reborning dolls and I take care of seven dogs.Before I settled in I saw that everyone was discussing the Jeepers Creepers truck. I have some info on that but don"t know where I read it. Thank you, thisiswhoiam

Found this madhouse by following another link, it looks interesting.

welcome Mr. Brown!

Hey Everyone,

Just wanted to get my introduction in. At one point I did have a account here and had posted a few questions and topics, but since have lost the email/name that went along with it. Most of you wouldn't remember me anyhow, because I wasn't really around long enough.

My main reason for coming here is the photography/art forums. I'm also a avid gamer, music, movie geek and you'll see me probably contributing to those topics as well. I can't wait to get started!

Thanks for having me... or at least rejecting me quickly and without pain.

welcome phoenix.

how long ago were you a member? if you PM me your old username we might be able to get the REAL rebirth of the phoenix

Hi new folks!

Hey everyone, I'm gonna try to be active here, look forward to talking with ya

quix.

Hi there! I joined here years ago and have been lurking on and off--but I felt like today was the day for action. I'm excited about jumping into the conversation!

Hi!

Forgot about this site , I entered my old password and bango it still worked , said I hadn't visited this site since 01/04/2007 :rolleyes:

A hearty welcome to Quix, Goldie, Lumin, and Machoosh!

Just got in. Need to unpack. Wanted to say a quick Hello!

Wow, hi all you new/old folks!

Morning All!

Hey
Been lurking here for a while, figured it wouldn't hurt to start posting once in a while.

hello chat room

hey dbpiv, boggy and laprincess!

welcome to the board!

Hey all.

hello

Hey, guys. Welcome aboard!

hey alex and mark. welcome to the board guys

Newbie here! I have wandered in and out and peeked around from time to time so instead of being a creepy lurker I decided to join the club=]

Hey, SwingGirl. It's nice to see you posting.

Hi
 

My names Hank and I'm interested in learning how to use my Tens Unit to enhance the sexual experience. I'm 68 years old and I have chronic arthritis that's required replacement of two hips and a knee and practically all my joints are involved. The tens unit was recommended by my doctor. My physical therapist hinted that there could be other uses for it but he couldn't elaborate in a room full of big ears.

welcome hank!

Hi everybody. I know I did this totally backwards, not unusual for me. Wasn't sure if I could comment.
Thank you for TFP, it's nice to have people hear you, or at least to think they do. Doesn't matter, once I type it, I feel like you all have heard me and it makes me feel like I'm part of something,
anti-social behavior can be very confining.

I don't talk about myself much (stop laughing), no really I don't, this is all new to me and a bit liberating. It's great to be here :wave:
