Yes (since March '05)
Yes (I have only bought one other game since, and I don't play that, so 
Eve has saved me a huge amount of cash).
Yes - but they are probably a lot less interesting to other people than 
they are to me. Mining in my sleep (I hate rock chewing). Hunting 
pirates with the Molden Heath vigilantes. My first PvP victory. Getting 
out of a mission with 4% of my hull left intact. Inviting friends along 
to help me with a mission and watching them lose their ships. My first 
destroyer - ditto my first cruiser, BC, Inty, AF, Battleship, HAC. 
Stripping a belt in a Corp mining op, and flying cover for a fleet op. I 
could go on, but I won't.

Lots of stuff - but I suggest that you read a few of the forums at 
eve-online.com and see if you like the sound of what is going on.

One other point that I really like - skill learning goes on at a steady 
rate whether you are in-game or not. So people who spend 167 hours a 
week in game don't have that much advantage over those who have little 
spare time - compared with games where you have to grind the skills out 
(more fun, too).
