Founding Day

Today is Founding Day, the anniversary of The Smoking Lounge, the forum where The Gatehouse (Gazette) was originally conceived and that remains, in my opinion at least, the best forum for steampunk and dieselpunk on the web (even though it is rather quiet).

So happy 5th anniversary Smoking Lounge, and a huge thank you to everyone, especially Mr Nick Ottens, who keeps the place up and running for the members’ enjoyment!
