It takes a women to tell them how to do it.

This is at the core of the statistician's protest.

By multiplying the numbers out at the current rate it's going you will still get an apples to oranges comparison.

The equivalent would be to take a three month average of church attendance using June, July, and August, and comparing it to a twelve month average attendance at the same church.

For statistics to be used for comparison the defining parameters must be the same.

The NFCF and GNC numbers include the slow months of summer when many posters find a brief window of sunny life outside the forums.

Makes sense to me Alvin.

Great, another Sorry Thread.

SoCali, I did not mean to post you were bitter.

Granted the 54 day mark cannot be compared exactly, there are some distinct advantages here.

The Gang of Eight was a group who overtook Thad's Tab and while many were interested long term in Thad as a husband, the short term goal was to up post counts alone without any substance. This also drove Thad close to insanity.

And in the end, Thad is still here.

That's true - - what I said would be more of a projection, which you do in business too. What you have said would be more accurate.

I trust that smoking/drinking aren't your vices in life, so you should be alright.... in the mean-time, we'll just have to put up with each other as online-neighbors.... Hidy ho, neighbor!

The Grumpy Old Men had a Major CRUSH on the lovely lady...does that mean you have a crush on me Mal? You know some men love older women
