Thank you Mary for your input. Now let's just say that I am spending much
too much time here. Since I had a few spare moments, I decided to go back,
as far as my reader would let me, and do a bit of research. I listed each
posting from "the group":

From Jan 8- present

Ditzy Desiree comes in a whopping first place with a total of 34 postings
 in 14 days. Some of which were quite lengthy. Yes, this is a true sign of 
 someone with a life. Shyeah right. To give Desiree the benifit of a doubt,
 I went back to see how many topics were started by desiree vs. pure flames.
 0-34. Sorry Desiree, guess not.

Johnny Fiero comes in second with 27 postings. Did the same for him too.
 0-27. Oh Johnny, as for your not inviting me.....you're breaking my heart.
 Tell it to someone who cares.

Ed Bass, I mean Carp took third with 26 postings. Now Ed surprised me. No
 Topics started by him, but flames were also minimal. Usually just giving a 
 humorous remark to some other flame. Actually not too bad either. 

Bob O Bob took fourth place with 18 postings. Again, No topics started. Only
 Flames 0-18

Bruce Ong -fifth place with 13 postings. I think 3 of those were topic 
 topic starters. Good work Bruce.

Oleg my buddy came in Sixth with 11. Of course all these were "look how
 smart and profound I can be" one-liners. But none the less, true to form
 Oleg.

Charlene tied me for posting with nine. It would seem that Charlene has been
 pulled in. Usually flames. My total was 4-5 topic starters to flames.

Drieux took eighth with 7. Usually just a humorous statement to other flames.
 Entertaining.

John Wincn took ninth with 7 postings. He didn't tie drieux because quite
 frankly.....his postings don't quite live up.

Aahz and K. Berry do get honorable mention. Kenn for 5 postings, and Aahz for
 5 postings AND having that pathetic "I am a great man" header of his.

Monica was the surprise here. Only one posting! Filled with the venom of the 
 wicked witch of the east, but only one. What's happened Monica?

Oh, and Marvin had 6 I think. Marvin and Bob Becker were not tabulated because
I think they are both entertaining and TRY to keep ba.singles the way it is
supposed to be. Information about the bay area for singles.

And mary, Yes, I am smug. With ba.singles as depicted in this group. I am 
ellated that I am not one of them. And your farm comment really cracked
me up.....shyeah right. Keep working on it though.

Dan
