That's .87 posts per minute in the past almost 26 hours. Wonder if we can work up enough of a frenzy this afternoon/evening to get the average to one post per minute.
Unfortunately, we are losing some steam at the moment.
Trying to pitch in but I've got problems at work. Maybe I should just post until the problems go away. Is that possible?

We're all obsessing here on 9909. I'm wondering if we DO make it, can we coordinate it to stop for the rest of the day on this thread. It would really be cool if we could stay on 9909 until midnight. That would be truly impressive, but it would take a real coordinated effort, and we'd have to assign the person who gets the big one. Unless one of the mods could just lock it temporary.

I'm sure we'll blow right on through 10,000 sometime today/tonight, too.


I'm sure we will to...I didnt' fine original reference to 9909...but I know who had no faith in the pwing power of crazie talkers

humph...we will reach 9909 with one hand tied behind our collective backs.
Hell, on this site, you only need one finger to post. Heck, you could do it with a toe. Or a nose.

Coordinated effort in this case is a euphemism for self-control...

Yeah, you've gotta be fast. I'm thinking that what Wilson said earlier may be more interesting. Okay, I'm talking obliquely. He referred to the 10,000th post in an earlier post.

Well, with the rapidity of the posting in the last day, there will be some free time this evening. If one chooses to maintain some self-control and not go after 10k. :-t
