Over 100 -- I've been keeping a "Mudcat Life List" for about 5 years now.

Some people I knew before there was a Mudcat or before they got sucked in, I mean, involved here at Mudcat.

Started meeting new 'Catters at Barry's party in November of 2000 -- we'd known Barry for many years before Mudcat existed. Then we had a party (Annual Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend "Tune It Or Die!" Music Party and Ladyslipper Festival) which just happened to occur the day after a China Sea shanty singaround -- that brought a bunch of 'Catters into our living room. And since then it's been festivals, The Getaway, gatherings instigated by Mudcat, etcet etcet.
