I just found this thread
Anyway, congrats Frostie, it was entirely deserved, and thank you to all the members who make this place what it is to be such a joy to be a part. I know it isn't much but I hope that at least it makes your day a little more special. I don't think the story is quite over yet Frostie........ I'm just glad you received my parcel as I have never sent to Greece before, but as it turned out it was fine

Congratulations Frostie for 1,000,000th post.
I am bored at work today and did some quick calculations. Please correct me if I am wrong but I come up with: As of today there are 1,034,044 post and 21,786 members on TRF. JJ by himself has 55,162 of those posts which = over 5.3% of the total posts on TRF?? If posting took 10 seconds on average, JJ has spent 551,620 seconds, 9193 minutes, 153.22 hours and that equals 6.4 days. If you took the number of current memebers and averaged them with the number of post that is only 47 posts/per member. JJ you are amazing!! That is why everone on TRF loves you. |

So, does that mean JJ should contribute 5.3 % of the total donations here (for his atypical broadband usage).

I just received a phone call from the Post office and they told me that tomorrow they will ship a parcel to my apartment.
I guess that's the second TRF parcel ! Wonder who is the sender and what is inside the parcel

seems like it took about four years to reach 1,000,000, and a little over two more years to pick up an additional 1,500,000.
