I have some new articles I'd like to post on an old account but I've probably forgotten the email address its linked to and so can't retrieve my password.
I posted here:
http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4796554/Difficulties-retrieving-password.aspx
If anyone is able to help then it would be greatly appreciated.

They will help you where you first posted but they're on Canadian time so probably won't be for a couple of hours.

Following JSOP's post earlier, I did some investigating - fascinating stuff! Looking through NASA's raw image files, there definately is a mysterious light on mars...

Is this the new form of Rick rolling ?

No mystery at all: it is just another secret rover.
Maybe the NSA is looking for more people/aliens to spy on, they do like to be well prepared.

10500000 members exactly when I started typing this post...
Half-way to 11 million!

Someone's going to do it so it might as well be me. Halfway to 11 million would really be 5.5 million.

Yes, I could name a few people who have contributed greatly towards that 10,000,000 number.

"Maths" is correct.
As ex-British convicts, the Australians use the real English language, not the hideous mutation that you 'merkins use.

We're not all convicts! 
Quite a few free settlers came over as well (as British officers, servants, adventurers)

"noun ( used with a singular or plural verb ) Chiefly British" - Therefore I concede. You are right, and actually so wrong at the same time. 
I can't help it if we took English and made it better. We don't use any of those phony accents those silly Brits use. Except for our southerners and our northerns, and some of the midwest.

Well at least we don't use phony platitudes all the time - "have a nice day, y'all!" and so on.
And we don't describe everything as "AWESOME!!!!!" (whilst pronouncing it "arse-um").
And we don't call women "you guys".

No thanks. Can't stand the stuff. I'll have a ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) instead.

Yes, American English is terrible I admit. However, arse-um? Who the heck says it that way? Perhaps the people that also say Washington as Warshington. But I have never heard arse-um.

Yeah, we don't tend to put as much emphasis on the "r" as the 'merkins and Canadians do.

- Proper English: /ɑːs/
