Just was at a site that after Gold(en) they had Diamond and then Lifer.

Not certain about the diamond moniker but definitely want to some day earn the Lifer one!! :D

Here are the averages for JPG and Dusty:

JPG, 13,631 = 272 post per month = 9.08 posts a day
Dusty, 10,761 = 145.41 per month = 4.84 post a day

These are just averages using the months they have been on this site. How do you guys find time in the shop if you spend this much time posting?

Isn't it great being retired and having the better part of every day available to do only those things that I want to do.

I get up about 4:00am each and every day and I retire in the evenings at about 8:00pm. Sixteen hours a day to do what I want.

If it takes fifteen minutes to post to the forum, I still have over 14 1/2 hours to do other things.

There's lots of time Woodburner.

Yup, there is a time even earlier. Example, right now. It is now 2:43am. I want my coffee.
