o do you want those of us on the list to apologize? 1996...I think that's
the year I started to post here....If those figures were based on my att.net
addy, then what about my aol postings and leapfrog mailings? They would
have to be added on so I'm sure I/m higher in the overalls....and I'm really
surprised Neal's not in the altogether list...and surprised that Mooron, in
his shorter span here, has managed to catch up with oldies....

One might talk of quantity vs quality, but note who the leader is
and who else brackets you (must be off his meds gain?)

And not remotely close to accurate.

The figures from the years I know tally with a set I dredged up
a long time ago. But I would agree, the 10-100 members is way on
the low side if one considers the number of lurkers subscribing
to the ng. I think the estimated membership is a wild guess on
the basis of the individuals posting in some (short) arbitrary
period.

Not to mention that the google figures completely miss all posts with
the "x-noarchive" bit set. 8^)

You're complaining that Oz1s posts shouldn't be missed?? :|

Why thank you Taddy......

BTW - the Mahone Bay Wooden Boat Festival was a complete and utter blur...
minus the semi sober sailing sojourns. I'm certain I had a very good time
and assume I didn't vex anyone overly much due to the unusual lack of visits
from the local constabulatory regarding the misbehavior of my crew.
I did not get any photos.... :-(

Whoops...Neal is there...I forgot about his Pieman moniker....Can't believe
MC in second place though...he's had two other names, too so there's really
more of him than what appears there....
