they will look upon it from the lofty heights of the numbers beyond reckoning and will count it as a very small thing indeed.

in the days of yore there was much giggling and incredulity that a thread could contain 100 replies.

**DS23** · 10 September 2009, 21:13

a thousand was considered bulltulip. an impossibility.

**DS23** · 10 September 2009, 21:14

**DS23** · 10 September 2009, 21:16

but is this anything significant in the world of threads? are we close to a big number compared to others out there in the world wide web thing?

**DS23** · 10 September 2009, 21:16

**DS23** · 10 September 2009, 21:17

40 in fact.

**DS23** · 10 September 2009, 21:18
