1. That's a total since it was started and includes all TSd and inactive members.

There are about 3000 active.

2. Really? The number has gone up dramatically since I joined

I am curious how you come up with a number of 3000? Is there a place one can get that?

5. I forget who it was, a year or so ago someone wrote a program or script that

looked through the posts and totaled up all unique names for something like 6 months. It showed that something like 80% of posts were made by 5% of members...something in that ballpark. :-)

4. I think the number of unique posters is more around 5K.

I would put lurkers at 10K.

3. Wow, I think there were around 30,000 (maybe a little less) when I joined five years ago.

7. That's about right

Plus there's a lot of readers who never sign up. SO those estimates are always really hard to figure.

8. It seems like a thousand years ago when the number was around 20,000

It has been a long national nightmare to be sure...
