I'm curious where that estimate comes from.  Obvisouly the number of people
on the mailing list could be found out.  Was the number of rec.music.gaffa
usenet news readers an estimate from somewhere?  I remember seeing such
an estimate for newsgroups in one of the news.* newsgroups I think.
Can't find it at the moment though, maybe later if I care enough.

I disagree because that would make is sound like there are 30,000
t-shirts out there and besides there is nowhere near that many
actually posting.  If 30,000 is reasonably accuarte, which I'm
skeptical about, it is probably due to many wandering in and reading
a post or two in curiosity.  Not really very representative of love-hounds.

Eric France <ericf@netcom.com>, what do you say?  Do you want to continue
it sometime before long?  How was the move?
