I just noticed, but had forgotten how time flies, but that has been 15 years on CP!
I don't suppose there is a long service award? 
I was on an oil platform in the North Sea when I first registered, and here I am on another one half way between Iran and Qatar. At least it is a bit warmer. Heat index was 54'C today, normal for this time of year. Pass me an ice-cream.......

2002?
N00b. I've been here since July 2001.
Ok, who's next?[*] 
(the only older account I still use daily might be my Hotmail account)
[*] Obviously Chris's name will appear here sooner or later...which I guess would make that a new definition for the Maunder Minimum...

I am one of the few who has been here a little bit longer. In fact, the only people I see around with a member number lower than me are Ravi and Chris.
Anyway, now that you mention it, it really has been a long time.

There's a little history behind this. Chris started his website stuff at a site called codeguru and the owner of it sold out and left Chris high and dry. Shortly thereafter he sent an e-mail to a few hundred users of the site and notified us he was starting the site and many of us came over. The first member numbers were assigned by where your first name was in the alphabetic sort and not all of those first people actually signed up. As I wrote, Ravi and I are the only ones from back then that I know are still around, at least occasionally.

Interesting story … I was on CodeGuru too, and, I became hooked on CP very quickly , so indeed it looks like it's Chris's fault (and he deserves all possible distinctions for this ) … ,

If there was, I'm sure someone would have GOTTEN one long before now.
