charles the moderator is throwing himself a birthday party this Friday in SF.
I’ve decided to invite a selected few WUWT regulars to attend.
Acceptance will be based on examining your comment history. No newbies, sorry.
Steve Mosher will be there.
It will go from 10 pm to apprx 4 am or?
If you want to attend post here. You will be contacted via email.
Steve Sadlov, kuhnkat, you out there?
Moderators and Anthony, you are all invited.
Happy Birthday Charles!
I just found out my Brother’s distillery in SF (Treasure Island) won “double gold” for his “China Beach” vodka, meaning it was a unanimous decision among all judges. That might be a nice way to celebrate if you’re so inclined to support a local business & like a fine spirit. I’ve tried it… SMOOOOOTH. I like the one made from sugar cane too.

Best regards & great job here at WUWT – Mike S.
Have a very Happy Birthday.
Would like to attend, but logistics are a barrier.
Please try to blow out all those candles quickly, on the first attempt.
Don’t want to add an UHI effect.
Uneasy Happybirthday Incident
Best Regards
I’m not sure I can attend, as this conflicts with my Friday evening Emily Post meetings.
Happy Birthday anyway!
Happy birthday! And as you are such a prominent Bay resident, I’m sure Ms. Pelosi will be jetting back for the occasion?
You’re certainly more important than whatever she may be working on!
Was I that sneaky? Yes, I would love to be asked. I would be honored to be asked. Would have to send regrets, however. Getting ready for those beautiful kids and grandkids has done me in.
I don’t want to rain on anybody’s party but I can’t lie, so here’s my honest reaction: I love WUWT when it looks professional and mature.
I might not be part of the cool kids club but Happy Birthday sir, and to you, Anthony and rest of the mod squad a big Thank You to keeping this train from going off the tracks.
Cheers!
Happy Birthday, fella! 1958 was truly an exceptional year all round!! I will be there in spirit, or beer, or wine, or cocktail………………………..!

Happy birthday, Charles. But, yes, you might want to consider how many more birthdays would be safe for you to have! Given the Precautionary Principle and all. See Postnormal Science at work below as it valiantly strives to “democratize” science by demonizing old white males – bolded. So you might want to consider suicide “before it’s too late”!
PaulsNZ (02:53:21) :
Happy Birthday… You may be an endangered human judging by the hubris BS spouted here in NZ!

Cheers
From PaulsNZ’s reference:
On the other hand as an old white male myself, I’ll have to ask in response, “Is it true – as everyone says it is – that Postnormal Science really is a manifestation of Tertiary Syphilis?”
I’m sure you remember this one!

Happy B-Day and make sure you buy carbon credits for each candle!!
Thanks for everything and keep up the great work.
Happy Birthday Charles!
The quality of the comments herein reveals a loyalty and appreciation that must warm your heart.
Of all the comments it’s this one that resonated with wisdom and a request that I heartily second!
P Gosselin (02:43:15) :
Happy birthday /
Herzlichen Glückwünsche zum Geburtstag!
You are at the best possible age – still vital, but wise.
Strike the iron while it’s hot.
Post some photos of the party so that we can see how it went!
Happy birthday Charles,
Are these Invitations tradeable. You could start an exchange right here on WUWT. It would have to be as profitable as a carbon exchange. What’s the current ask, do both the buyer and seller pay commision, I’m only 50 miles away.
Regards,
Bill
Where do I sign up?
52 years old and nearly a thousand tonnes of carbon dioxide produced.
Your contribution to the global foliage community is perhaps your most remarkable achievement thus far.

Just kidding.
Happy birthday Charles – have a good one!
Happy Birthday!
52 was a great milestone.
Sorry that I will not be in the Bay area this week.
May the coming year be your best year yet!
Happy Birthday, Charles.
I don’t post very often on WUWT, and am too far away in any case, but can I contribute to the beer and silly hat fund?
I can’t make it on Friday, but I hope you’ll let me buy you dinner the next time I’m in SF… or the next time you make it to the North East. Happy Birthday.
CTM,
Not sure if I’ve been here long enough to meet the time requirement, but I’d like to think the quality, if not the quantity, of my posts sneaks me in through the back door. Plus, I’m less than an hour away by my fuel-efficient ancient Honda Accord. 🙂
Regardless, have a wonderful 52nd birthday and party!
Happy Birthday to Charles the Moderator!
If it is any consolation, Charles the Dr.P.H. here is even older (pushing 55, I am eligible for senior discount breakfast at Denny’s Restaurant in 6 months!) See what you have to look forward to? Besides the Depends that is….
Maybe we could all do a low-carbon, virtual party via Skype or other VOIP? Man, think how weird THAT would be, especially with all the drunk Kiwis doing that haka stuff!!
Or, perhaps the WUWT virtual community should try to connect at Cancun? Might be equa-distant for many of us. WUWT could even have a display booth, THAT would shave the clams the wrong way!
Cheers, CTM!! Thanks for everything, have a great birthday bash!
Happy birthday!

Well maybe not 100% what you want, but…
Happy Birthday Charles! The 50s is a wonderful time in life. I’m waiting for my favorite oil company to send their private jet to pick me up for the party, can’t understand why I haven’t heard from them yet. If I’m unable to make it because of some scheduling snafu, please have a martini for me!!
Happy Birthday CTM!
Have a happy Birthday and a wonderful party!
No shop talk at the party!
