A BIG CONGRATS on reaching 3.5M, sorry, no new car! :( Wow! Truly magnificent! You've done great here on GasBuddy! You're one of only 91 of more than 8,000,000 GBs that have accumulated at least 3,500,000 points! Keep going another million or more! A few of the GBs ahead of you have already retired! Many GBs are celebrating their 11 year anniversary, as you are here on GasBuddy and are continuing on to the next level! Pat is just a little over a year ahead of you and still going! Doesn't look like Pat is going to give up the #1 spot anytime soon! lol! Hope to see you here when I get to my 10th anniversary! <grin> You're doing great, so keep going! Don't give up now! Keep going like a PRO Chicago GasBuddy! Have a nice week! Thanks buddy! Ron

Congratulations on reaching 3.5 Million points!

Actually my quote was "....irrational diatribe, directed against your President Obama;...." "Your", was used, in the context, that Obama was and presently is the democratically elected President for all Americans; granted some citizens did not vote for him or the democrats; whether you agree or not, presently Obama is the President of the U.S. This is just splitting hairs. The overall point I was making is that when and if the republicans gain office, don't expect the status quo, to change! My response was not actually directed towards yourself; but to others that read that particular forum. Regards Sir!

Mr. figman, I do not feel what I stated was race baiting; that being, trying to pit one race against another. In the past, many other comments (some very disparagingly) have been directed against Obama (and other monikers), that were meant to be racist. I have seen a great deal of irrational diatribe, directed against your President Obama; the rhetoric is far greater against Obama vice the democratic party. They call him many things including Muslim etc; which he is Not; Not Muslim. Even if he was Muslim, what's with that. If people want to solve problems, then focus on them; not some fallacies that has nothing to do with the issue at hand! America your better then this!

I would very much appreciate your posting in my new "STATE" ranking topic in the "just for fun" topic section. You can find your Illinois state ranking at the following website. http://www.hovercode.com/gas/illinois.php If this is of any interest to you, would love to see you there on a daily basis. Thanks in advance...

Thanks! Don't know what will happen next week, I have to go into the hospital for bypass surgery! So it looks like the other family members will hopefully keep my streak going until I'm back up in a few days.

Thanks again figman for stopping by the Little Rock Alphabet Game. Your welcome by our fire anytime!

Happy New Year and a prosperous 2012 to you and your family! Thanks GasBuddy for being here each day! Keep going like a Chicago PRO GasBuddy in 2012!

WOW! Thanks lgppa. I would have never guessed it's been 10 years already.

Hope you're enjoying your 10th anniversary here on GasBuddy! Congratulations! It's great to see GBs still here contributing to GasBuddy after 10 years of posting gas prices for others! More than 90% of the new GBs won't even make it to 500k, and many GBs have retired between 1M and 3M, but you have done great! You had what it took, the necessary dedication and persistence to get you to 10 years! Wow! Keep going! Don't give up now, you've worked too hard to get where you are today! Doesn't look like Pat is going to give up the #1 spot anytime soon! lol! Hope to see you here when I get to my 10th anniversary! <grin> Have a nice week! Thanks!
