Speaking of statistics, here's a few more. I had a personal record 41 messages in my mailbox here this morning, mostly about this post but with a few personal messages. Also, I had never sent the same personal message to more than one person before, but my PM about this post went out to the other 36 people on the list and it appears to have worked. Since the PM system shows whether the recipient has opened it or not, I can see that as of now there are 15 people who haven't checked their mail yet, so I imagine there will be some more comments coming soon.
The last time I did this, clutch responded with a series of one word replies that added up to a sentence and spiked his total up that way.
icedad--The count of your posts continues even through name changes. Ragnar's total includes all of his four (that I know of) names.
Jeffrevs--The count includes all the posts you initiated and all replies.
pchee2--I'm not retired yet, although I did become eligible for the AARP at my last birthday, and I joined too. I'm not proud--I'll take those discounts. I guess I'm eligible for most senior tournaments now, too. I'm disillusioned with tournaments, however, but that's a subject for another post.
I still don't know what this "code" button is or how it works, if someone could enlighten me....
