Hmmm. Seems I don't post as much in here as I thought.

Steve, how about some figures for the Random Worm?

And by the way, just passed 8000 points. #10 to do so.
Now I'll let Jason & Paul pass me.
Jason's gone through. I'm more than 1000 posts behind.
I only have 5000 points from real posts - and a good number in the Thread and Random Worm.

I like that. That is a good name for the son of the thread!!

Hey Paul, your last article[/url], while up there with the very best for technical content, usefulness and accuracy, has a typo in it.

Are you suggesting that I should have asked someone to proof-read it first?

Where's the typo? 🙁
