and now a speech on the greatness of this thread from the (current) mayor:
"
AHEM. The price of greatness due to
THIS THREAD is responsibility. If the people of the
MOTW BOARD had continued in a mediocre station, struggling with the wilderness, absorbed in their own affairs, and a factor of no consequence in the movement of the
MOTW BOARD, they might have remained forgotten and undisturbed beyond their protecting oceans: but one cannot rise to be in many ways the leading community in the civilised world without being involved in its problems, without being convulsed by its agonies and inspired by its causes. Squa Tront. Snort. Grrrrrggh."
