It is done. Clayre loves milestones, and so do we. Nobody got hurt in the making of this perfectly divisible, precisely multiplicative achievement. We don't have a problem, you do. Congrats @paulavaynshteyn!

Clayre is not having it. Please get this nice lady to 1K followers before things get out of hand and we all pay the price! Round numbers gang, get on it!
