Well, Jeffrey may make a comment here or there, but not post many lengthy, in-depth responses. Also, he might be considering a time factor: How long has he been subscribed compared to you? In the past 6 months I've accumulated about 200-250 posts, I think. I'd been a lurker before that -- so I now have a total # of posts just under 400. But I've been an on-again, off-again lurking subscriber to Brin-L since 1998 under various screen names. I've only started to open my mouth over the past 6-7 months. :-) Jon
