It should be pointed out that the idea of a quotes board, rather like [[Good Morning Campus]], actually originated much earlier in the station's history. In the early-mid 1990s, quotes were written on a sheet pinned to a wall in the "office" of [[P/X/002]], and the practice continued after the move. [[Alan Murrell]] was particularly quotable... If the messageboard could handle random mutterings going back 17 years or so, they could probably be supplied.

After a brief hiatus the quotes board came back as part of the 2009 website redesign, with quotes pulled out of the archived old site back to {{unsure|about 2006}}, and still remains in active (and hilarious) use, although is often hidden in the first few weeks of the new year to avoid scaring too many people off!
