The number might not look 'too big' but it took quite some dedication and addiction to get here. With the boost from TZC and my new GTX 1070, I passed the 200 mil mark today. In my first couple of years of folding, I folded with almost no interruptions regardless of changing places, occupations, etc. At times it became harder, at times I had access to too much hardware!! I am happy to get more active again in the forums and see that still many people (and new and more people) are interested in folding --AND folding for team EVGA. Kudos to all who has been a part of the community and helped directly or indirectly.

I can say the same about folding - once I started my machines ran 24/7 whether I was on vacation for a week, out of the country, whatever I folded from around the same date you started. About 2 years ago I got the crunching bug so I am not folding as much. The 200 mil mark is Big - congratulations!

Likewise mflanaga! It is really great to hear from the old timers in this thread, great to see everyone hanging around and pushing with more folding power!

Then you're just a young whipper snapper if you were in school in the 80's. Not 1880s right? If 1880s, you're just a little older than me. Now with all this global warming, our kids will be swimming to school in 3 meters of water!. Up hill!

bill1024, your profile picture/avatar is a good hint for me to settle with 1980s. I won't claim that I am taking about 1880s!
I got my bachelors in the 80's, but bill1024's avatar would indicate he's got a few years on me. If it snows in Jacksonville this place goes in to freakout mode. They don't know what to do
