Gene:
You are quite right. I believe you've been right at least twice before.

Bill,
I believe you mean "at least twice, and perhaps more than twice" as, for
example:
"I have argued in favor of metric-only labeling 100 times. If I argue
for metric-only labeling "once more" or "one more time" my count will be
101 times, which is more than twice."
