The is called the Lantern Post because it lights the way to the "What is happening" thread
The "What is Happening" thread can be accessed directly. It is at the following address:
https://web2.0calc.com/questions/what-is-happening-wrap-4#r47
Chris, Alan or I have cursorily checked many recent posts but the forum has become much too large to do this properly so I am concentrating mainly on answering member questions on and checking member answers and giving members the points and ticks that they rightly deserve. There is not always even time to do this. :(
Up to: Questions page 2502 - with 25 per page
and Answers page 3996
There are some that do not have answers - Usually it is just too busy to get through all of them.
Instructions on reposting:
(Remember: All answerers intend to give correct answers but no answer comes with guarantees!)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I encourage everyone to read "What is Happening"
It is how I communicate with the forum and sometimes it contains important information.
This recurring thread has been renamed. In the past it was called "End of Day Wrap" or just "The Wrap"
All the old wraps can be accessed. They are in a Sticky Thread which are located in the bottom right hand corner of the forum.

Thanks Guys (in Australia guys used like this always includes the girls )
This will give you a very concise history of the forum :)

I came in at the end of August a little over 2 years ago.
The forum really was not being used before that. It was fun building it :)
I was the only mathematician here for 4 or 5 months. Although Kitty<3 was by my side and she answered many of the junior High and Primary school question. I was, and still am, very grateful to her. :)
All the student who asked questions in the beginning received excellent answers (because there were not that many questions). It was much smaller then but it grew very quickly. It has been really interesting watching its growth and development.
We always used to be known as Camelot. Occasionally you will still see references to Camelot.
I think DragonSlayer554 was asking about Camelot just the other day. Ahh the memories. :D
