Everyday lately the total membership grows.

1956 1957 1958 1959 1960 at this moment.

We'll be marking the 2000th member soon - do they get a special ER Forum door prize?

Are we snowballing (sorry just came in from removing 6 inches of wet snow and having a sb fight with 19 year old son - he won -

better eyes and arm ) into some mighty large ER portal?

Dory - Will you consider giving us a share when you we sell out to Google or MS?

How would you determine who gets one and how large? Would it be quality of the posts

Would it be quantity of posts or the date registered

With warm regards and admiration,
DanTien

Reminds me of the little boy who returned home from hunting with his father and told his mom: "Mommy! Mommy! We killed a bear! Daddy shot him!"

Don't be so quick to dismiss our value

So the percentage of interest will most likely be set by number of posts?

And all this time it just appeared that MRGAULT2U just had an opinion on everything, but now we know his real intent

Now, if I can just think of 5600 new subjects to post on so I can catch up....

Maybe shares will be issued by Dory based on those forum participants who have come forth with financial support for the forum.....* 8)

Should probably be based on the size of one's endowment.

Uh-oh - CubeRat better change her avatar again.

Did the Paypal route back in Sept!
Dory already knows about me and my endowment.

Hopefully he goes by that instead of quantity, length of service or quality.

Although I don't go to watch sports events, i'd like to see these greatful players show their appreciation by pulling their millions and buying all the seats of a stadium for 1 day per season and letting in their great fans for free.

I accept you just the way you are (), as long as you're not hurting nobody.

I see what you mean about creepy, I guess it's all in the mind of the beholder

You're a bigger poster than me - 5964 posts!
I have post envy.

cute fuzzy bunny · 12-31-2005, 11:06 AM

Eh, its not the size of the post or the size of the post count, but the Mrs. will be upset if you "retire too early"

How's the ad revenue? roughly keeping track with membership?

dory36 · 02-28-2006, 02:26 PM

We're getting rich at the rate of a little under $2 per day.
