thats what I'm talking 'bout...  So! Let's extrapolate! 

If we "presume" that each of the 72 registered users look at the page every day ( a great leap of course, but will offset the idea that some of us look at it a couple of times per day), that means there are 161 people each day who look at the page who are not registered, since anyone can look and read. 

If you  take that further, the 161 x 5 (conservative number since we are talking about people who are likely working 5 days/week)=805 (non-member observers per week).

Then....805 X 52 (weeks per year)=41860 non-member hits per year. 


...so, in a nutshell,anyway you cut it, there are people looking and reading, and as sure as God made little green apples....they are talking about it to some degree....


...and we are filling a niche' for sharing of knowledge.  If people can keep the discussion civil, express a willingness to share their knowledge and perspective, even in disagreement....doesn't it make sense to do so?

;o)
