But does the tale run something like this?

*******************************************

In the beginning there was bandwidth and the modem.

And the cyberspace was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the monitor. And the Spirit of Mindy moved upon the face of Size Acceptance.

And Mindy said, Let there be The Safe Place: and there was The Safe Place.

And Mindy saw the Safe Place, that it was good: and Mindy divided the Safe Place from the darkness.

And Mindy called the Safe Place Abundance, and the Other Place was called Dimensions. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

And Mindy said, Let there be a Menu in the midst of the Website, and let it divide the Links from the Links.

And Mindy made the Menu, and divided the Links which were under the Website from the Links which were above the Website: and it was so.
And Mindy called the Website the Homepage. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

And Mindy said, Let the Links under the Homepage be gathered together unto one place, and let the masses gather: and it was so.

And Mindy called the gathering of the masses the General Discussion Board; and the gathering together of the singles called she the Singles Board: and Mindy saw that it was good.

And Mindy said, Let the General Discussion Board bring forth posters, the strong yielding aid, and the wise yielding advice after their kind, whose experience is in itself, upon the General Discussion Board: and it was so.

And the General Discussion Board brought forth posters, and strong yielding aid after their kind, and the wise yielding advice, whose experience was in itself, after their kind: and Mindy saw that it was good.

And the evening and the morning were the third day.

And Mindy said, Let there be moderators in the Discussion Boards to divide the righteous from the trolls; and let them be for civility, and for debate, and for levity, and cupcakes:
And let them be for moderators in the Discussion Boards of the Safe Place to give guidance upon the posters: and it was so.

And Mindy made two great moderators; the one to rule the General Discussion Board, and the one to rule the Women's Board: she made the Rogues Gallery also.

And God set them in the Discussion Boards of the Homepage to give guidance upon the Safe Place, and to rule over the General Discussion Board and over the Women's Board, and to divide the righteous from the trolls: and Mindy saw that it was good.

And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

And Mindy said, Let the Bandwidth bring forth Abundantly the BBW that hath input, and lurker that may fly above the Safe Place in the open possibilities of links.

And Mindy summoned every manner of BBW that moveth, which the Bandwidth brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every lurker after his kind: and Mindy saw that it was good.
And Mindy blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the Threads in the Discussion Boards, and let lurkers multiply in the cyberspace.

And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

And Mindy said, Let the Homepage bring forth the Admirer after his kind, preferably walking upright after his kind: and it was so.

And Mindy summoned the Admirer after his kind, walking upright after their kind, albeit some that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and Mindy saw that it was (basically) good.

And Mindy said, Let the Admirer in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over Fatland.

So the Admirer reveled, in the image of BBW summoned she them. And Mindy blessed them, and Mindy said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and populate the Discussion Boards, and give them life: and have dominion over every living thing that moveth upon Fatland.

And Mindy saw every thing that she had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Thus the Safe Place and the Discussion Boards were finished, and all the host of them.

And on the seventh day Mindy ended her work which she had made; and she rested on the seventh day from all his work which she had made.

And ate chocolate.

Happy 5th Anniversary, Abundance .
