My pleasure to meet brother Ken Pierce, pastor of Draper's Valley Presbyterian PCA and enjoy lunch with him. I have also talked by phone at length on the phone with Don Jacobs.

I was gonna say... I was beginning to think that you were considering our lunch meeting this Friday as a "get to know ya" luncheon.

You probably met Bob Lynam too. He is one of the deacons at Pilgrim and posts here as rjlynam.

With that said, I have met 3:

CarolinaCalvinist (David Pell)
rjlynam (Bob Lynam)

and of course, ReederKidsMom (my beloved, Kara)

I have met two, since I don't think my wife counts as meeting a Puritanboard member. After all, I knew her before there was a Puritanboard.

3: Paul Manata, JohnV, and Jacob Aitken - would love to meet more.

I've also met a few lurkers. There's nothing more unnerving than having someone say, "oh, Chris Rhoades - aren't you on the PB or a mod there?"...My first reaction is, "greeaatt..." which posts are they thinking of (not the witch burning thread, not the witching burning thread. DOH! It was the witch burning thread!).

Well I see a couple of people who lurk on here all the time but you have inspired me...
I know there is one person at least in Lubbock who is actually signed on
perhaps I will meet with him for coffee soon.

I don't want to lie here, if the poll question is how many PB members have I met since becoming a PB member, then 1, Fred Greco. If the question is how many folks on PB have I met personally ever, I think the number is four or five (*I think its five). Amounts to the same answer so I voted 1-5 which seems to be leading the poll.

When heresy rises in an evangelical body, it is never frank and open. It always begins by skulking, and assuming a disguise. Its advocates, when together, boast of great improvements, and congratulate one another on having gone greatly beyond the ‘old dead orthodoxy,’ and on having left behind many of its antiquated errors: but when taxed with deviations from the received faith, they complain of the unreasonableness of their accusers, as they ‘differ from it only in words.’ This has been the standing course of errorists ever since the apostolic age. Samuel Miller, Introductory essay, The Articles of the Synod of Dort (1841).

I saw Paul Manata do a debate, but I never met him. So none.
