This blog is slowly approaching a nice round number - 10,000 comments. I know this is not Pharyngula where this would take an hour or two to fill, but still, we can get the remaining 200+ comments in over the next few days, can't we?
The person who posts the 10,000th non-spam comment will get a prize - something (your choice exactly what) from the A Blog Around The Clock store.

Consider this my small contribution to the cause! (Unfortunately, I don't have anything insightful to say.)

so what is 10,000 in binary? does 10,000 really matter?

Glad to help, I think I'll take the clock. I guess with 200+ to go I guess I'll just have to keep using the sun.
BTW 10,000 dec ... 2710 hex ... 10 0111 0001 0000 bin

I'll help. Are you going to give away prizes to the 10,000th commenter like Seed did for the 500,000th commenter? I want a pony.

I can't use fancy algorithms like Seed, but I can see the comment counter. I delete spam pretty quickly. I'll make sure I am not the one posting the 10,000th comment and the winner gets a prize from my cafepress store of his/her choice.

I don't comment very often, but this is certainly a worthy reason to speak up.
