Congratulations to the mysterious “concerned,” who becomes the first to reach 100 posts of feedback.

Over the semester “concerned” developed a reputation for timely comment and stinging criticism of the Herald editorial board. “Concerned’s” insistence on anonymity also infuriated his/her fellow posters, and inspired a number of clones (whose posts were not included in the total). Also not included in the total were 6 posts last summer by another “concerned,” who listed a different email address but who, given the tenor of his comments, we presume is the same person.

Regardless, 100 posts in a semester is nothing to scoff at, and we look forward to giving “concerned” the opportunity to express his/her worry, anxiety, apprehension, unease, and disquiet to us over dinner.

Congratulations as well to David Presberry, with 95 posts, and Abraham Liebsch, with 88, who both fell just short. On to 200!
