Somebody has way too much time on their hands.

The skipped numbers are due to deletions. Every once in a while we send out an email to all registered members. Accounts with bad addresses are deleted.

I was just a wondering, but not too far, I could get lost...

It is interesting to compare the number of members with the number of posters who have posted, this is common on many forums, probably 10% or less are actively posting/responding to posts.

just imagine how much ideas and information could be exchanged if as much as 50% of the members were active...

Maybe I'll check this out too...
Next weekend...
Thanks...

Claude Mathis - Thank you for your time and work to make this Forum work.Rocky

 

[tg]

Yes indeed a thanks to Claude, this forum even when things are a bit heated dies not come to the vile hatefull exchanges that I have seen elsewhere. I think that most forums tend to shake out and settle to a core of generally like minded individuals with a few others on either of the other ends of the spectrum that post, while the silent majority are quiet and not sharing their opinions, hopefully they are learning what to do or not to do in some cases, and in time may come to join the melee and share their own life from down the front expriences.

Yea New York!

We're #1! We're #1!

We're #1! We're #1! Sorry to pop your bubble, but "UNLISTED" is #1... (84 members)

That makes New York #2...

(numerically speaking, not bodily function speaking...)

And, it "IS" through the efforts of Cluade Mathis that we have a safe, friendly place to exchange ideas and make some new friends...

 

[Stumpkiller]

What's the chances all the "Unlisted" are from the same spot/state/country? Unless maybe it's that they're all from West Virginia and didn't pick that choice because it wasn't listed as "West - By God - Virginia."

Statistically, every region should have an equal number of paranoid, non-location divulging participants so the 84 can either be distributed on a weighted average of the known categories or ignored. Either way . . . We're still #1!

(And I add my thanks to Claude M. for his efforts and great indulgences in allowing us knuckle-heads to enjoy this forum).

OK, you can be #1, I guess...

If you go per capita Vermont wins hands down

Last I knew, it was part of Michigan...

Or, we can call it North Ohio...

(don't yell, I'm just joking...)

 

[djnye]

na--da u.p. is its own country, eh?

take care, daniel

 

[Stumpkiller]

"If you go per capita Vermont wins hands down."

No way. Montana, with one listee here, has 1/10th of the population represented.

 

[No Powder]

Looks like you all have good reasons why your state is #1 in quantity, I guess here in IOWA we will have to be content with #1 in QUALITY.

 

[roundball]

Really surprised that there aren't more from the group of states that have had New Hampshire's Thompson Center at their back door for 35 years

 

[tommy b]

One thing I don't understand about the u.p.- Why is it part of Michigan when it's attached to Wisconsin?

 

[RJR]

We lost the bet.
