2. I've been noticing that we've been getting close to 80,000
But we're almost 1,000 away. I think it may take a few more weeks. Of course, who knows, with Fitzmas coming this week and all!

6. only math majors are allowed to add and subtract
that poorly.
However, it seems like we hit 70,000 just a couple months ago. So with 10,000 new members, it makes me wonder 'where is everybody?' That's alot of people, but how many of them stay and become active members, and how many of them become regular lounge lizards?

11. Don't worry about it, Catch
The other day I thought we were closer, too, but then I thought harder about the math.

That being said, I think we'll get there soon.

8. have you really done the math on that?
Or did Skinner or an Admin say it was that? I added up the profiles once, and it was about 50,000 which would make the pizza rate about 30% but many of the profiles are not active either, they show as registered in 2002 with 3 posts or something.

10. It's now about 58K and change
forgot actual number, so the ration is holding steady

sure, even amoung the still active profiles, the vast majority have zero posts.
