I sorted my saved list emails by 'Name' and did not come up with anything like "many hundreds of people" as unique names. This is a very active and useful list, but the number of folks who request help once or twice and then don't return should not be considered as being among those who have 'become proficient'.
I wouldn't count them, either. But there are lots of folks who are actively using this software who never show up on the list. They either lurk or don't bother because they already get it. I've met quite a number of these. Based on my guesstimate of the product's installed base, I'm simply making a SWAG that there are hundreds.
Sorry. Should have been clearer about the number.
