How many Charter Members are still left?

Just curious. Any official (or even unofficial!) numbers on this?

2

Would that include Members who were Charter Members but let their memberships lapse only to re-up again as Members?

Vanity, Thy name is CP. :slight_smile:

Well, that would also be an interesting piece of info, but actually I was wondering how many CMs are left after attrition.

I don’t think I’m authorized to give actual numbers – the Chicago Reader is still a privately held company and reports only what it likes – but I can tell you that Charter Members are more than half of our current subscriber base.

And a corrallary to that, what percentage of us 99’ers are still active and remember what we were doing on the first day?

IIRC, I helped Jerry wrestle the Habitrail, err…server rack into the corner by the outlet, then I made some coffee. :smiley:

No, the newsletter said that he wanted spaghetti, but would have settled for baked ziti too.

For some reason, I’m seeing the scene from Lisztomania only with the children chanting “We will be the Master Posters.”
