The mudcat record shows me at 8,890 posts; but that's only to 3,659 threads.

(I guess maybe I've been repeating myself if I'm averaging 2.42 posts per thread.)

I don't know of a simple way to sort out how many threads a person has started. I doubt that my numbers would be competitive there, since I'm more inclined to replies than to starting threads; but it might be a bit scary to find out.

A fair percentage of my posts take more like a half-hour per, so I guess I've wasted about two man-years on them. (2088 mh/yr is a nominal average in most business estimating, for 40 hr/week. I've never heard of a different standard for ol' fart years.)

That doesn't, of course, count the ones that took so long to write up that someone else beat me back and they never got posted, or the ones where I didn't find a good answer and just gave up.
