    To celebrate Halloween - Everyone's a member weekend...

    I'm think, over halloween weekend (Oct 31st - Nov 2nd), of having a 'everyone's a member' weekend.

    Basically all users for those 2-3 days, have all the limits/facilities of subscribed members (eg: higher limits and summaries etc).

    The only ommission would be access to 'members only' contributions.
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    sounds like a great idea dude. i should get over to the fiction section more often and this is just the sort of thing that'll give me a push.

    Good man and very kind of you. Like Mike says, it might push me to check out the fiction section a bit more - there's some great stories in there.

    Yeah a big thank you for this gift. I was reading through the fiction section (lot's there new and old worth reading) and always running out of reads, I digested a lot of stories with the free time and was able to rate and give a ton of feedback.

    Many thanks Neil.
