As a long time student of Saints in our Book, I noticed something unusual today, so unusual I took a snapshot of it before it disappeared:

#	User	Experience	Level	Writeups	User Since	Last Here
37	planetscape	29659	Canon (20)	1282	2005-03-27 09:28	14 hours ago

Two adjacent monks in Saints in our Book with identical number of Writeups! Never seen that before.

planetscape, after more than ten long years at the monastery, we wind up together on 1282 posts apiece, at least for a little while. I'm very happy about that because I've always enjoyed your thoughtful and insightful posts.

Update: July 08 2015, exactly level now, both XP and Writeups! :) :) :)
