And congratulations are also due to Azlan who has passed the 10,000 postings mark. I'm not sure how he manages his day-time hobby as a Senior Project Engineer with his real work here on CriticalDance, but there you go.

Azlan's technical skills, calmness and common sense, all combined with his love of dance, make him an ideal working partner on the site.

Looking forward to your next 10,000 posts, Azlan.

Basheva, as one who has dabbled at moderating in Students' Questions and The Studio, I have deep respect and admiration for the quality and integrity of your work, and for your dedication to CD and the dance community, young and old, punny or not so punny. Congratulations!

And Azlan, congrats on 10,000, and for your never-ending efforts to make CD better and better. It's great to be part of this team!

Well done guys!

Thanks, guys. I don't know whether to feel old or prolific...

And Senior Project Engineer? That was several titles ago! Now you can add Associate/Partner, Project Manager, MIS, Marketing... Now that I think about it, how do I do that and this?

CONGRATS to you too A!
(Now HOW could I forget about you?)

Azlan, you are certainly the multi-talented, multi-tasking, multi-dimensional grand pooh-bah, CD and engineering grand master flash guru!!! Party on!!!

trina, I think being the rock star wife has gotten to you!

Well Azlan, that explains why you have so much free time. As a partner you just swan about looking important and let all the grunts do the work.

Azlan, you are one hundred percent right!!

My fortune cookie this evening read: "Your emotional nature is strong and sensitive." Sounds like several dancers I know... I think I got the wrong cookie.

Nancy, I value and treasure your opinion.

Thank you.

After Azlan and Basheva, congratulation Mr Sweeney for your 10,000th post and your administration!

Many thanks Jerome - you are clearly of a statistical persuasion, as I am.

CriticalDance has come a long way in three years and a few thank-you's are in order. Before CriticalDance I used to help out on ballet.co.uk, which was the first website of this type. Thus I remain grateful to Bruce Marriott for initiating this genre, which I found exciting from my first contact. The possibilities of dance promotion on the Internet continue to fire my imagination.

I consider myself very fortunate to have e-bumped into Azlan, as we have formed a successful and rewarding working relationship with few surprises and those that have arisen we have quickly resolved. Our interests and expertise dovetail exceptionally well and long may it continue.

Finally thank you to all the moderators and posters - fellow dance fans, dancers, administrators etc. who have made CriticalDance a uniquely interesting and courteous place to visit for ballet, modern, bharta natyam, Irish etc. etc. Indeed, we recently won a tongue-in-cheek award from Article 19:

I have to say that we were probably the only award winners who were pleased!

Again my thanks to everyone.

Mine read, "You are a happy man." So true.

Congratulations to both Basheva and Azlan !
Thanks for all your wonderful work in favor of that board !
