At 3070 we have lionelhutz28 with 0 posts 3071 we have Kazak also with 0 posts 3073 there’s Neotrinity also with a whopping 0 posts 3074 is Spiritus Mundi who is putting my post count to shame ☹ 3075 is AndrewTW&P - nada 3076 1stRunner-Up has a huge 2 posts 3077 Flerbus has the big goose egg 3078 Dr Data - Zilch 3079 bigstudetsky has 1 So, it seems that out of the 3070’s only Spiritus and I have no life. This is not encouraging. ---

These are the people in my neighborhood… the people that I meet each day… I hadn’t thought to do this before. Let’s just rev up the Welcome Wagon and see who’s about, shall we? 1. ericwass (9/1/99, 1 post) 2. Ruthie (5 posts) 3. Racho (2 posts) 4. Troy (1 post) 5. Mister\_RogersAWC (Remember him? 69 posts, how appropriate) 6. speakeasy (9/2/99, 86 posts, most recent one yesterday) 7. SatanGreavsie (5 posts; friend of yours, Satan?) 8. mrucker (0 posts) 9.

Kabbak (1 post) 36. Greggen (1 post) Hmmm… not exactly a bumper crop those couple of days. Aside from me, Sealemon88, speakeasy, and Momotaro, very few regs resulted from that batch. Oh, and by the way, ignore "04-28-2000 06:05 PM " in the Last Post field. All the inactive posters have that. Probably something to do with the new board going up. UncleBeer, this little feature is turning out to be an obsessive-compulsive’s heaven. I don’t know whether to thank you or slap you… ---
