As Andy noted PSE&M is celebrating its 8th Birthday! Craig, one of our founding administrators, was always good at keeping track of our milestones. So it is only fitting that we start our celebration by remembering two of the posts he created to commemorate this special day. The first was on May4, 2016 . By clicking the link in this post you can see his announcement four year later.

So now with 2091 members and and over 103,000 posts it’s time to party. Looking forward to seeing your ideas for this celebration!

You kinda lost me on the first one but the cake certainly makes an impressive kaleidoscope. Great idea and well done.

That is certainly a very interesting image Tony!

I guess I am still struggling with how I feel about AI-generated images. They certainly could serve as inspiration; that's for sure! What do you think?
