I had a six month long "4-6 days a week" Anki habit under development before I started my most recent gig. The new work routines disrupted my Anki habit and several days ago, actually using some of the content, I realized I'd forgotten how to fingerspell a certain letter that was in one of my decks. Reading these essays reminded me of all the good reasons I had for doing Anki and I started working through my backlog of cards.

I just wanted to say thanks for the contest and the essays and everything. It is more likely than not that I'll reform my habit in my new environment. You caused the splash and I benefited from the positive ripples. Thank you to everyone involved :-)
