FW: PSC-support statistics - why we're here/2006 update

[Guest guest]

> Here's some interesting historical information on PSC-Support (update

> through 2005):

>

> Established 12/11/98 (thanks to 's foresight)

> # members joined in 98 - 12 (total 12)

> # members joined in 99 - 54 (total 66)

> # members joined in 00 - 91 (total 157)

> # members joined in 01 - 118 (total 275)

> # members joined in 02 - 154 (total 429)

> # members joined in 03 - 181 (total 510)

> # members joined in 04 - 253 (total about 730)

# members joined in 05 - 322 (total 978)

> Keep in mind that in 2004, a " cleanup " initiative removed many invalid

> e-mail addresses (typically, people who change addresses and didn't remove

> the old one). This cleanup routine is automatic and always in place now.

> That explains why 253 joined in 2004, but only 175 are still members.

>

> The point is, this is a great group with a tremendous amount of

> experience. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
