On the other hand, I just saw tonight that there are over 7 million folks on the Christian Mingle.
Not sure what it means, but that wouldn't be the first time.

I will bet that a statistical analysis will find that 70 plus % are OT, and 50 plus % are religious/ political in topic.

I'm not interested in when it will happen or by who, but WHAT will happen. I'm going with the Mayan end of the world prediction for that particlular post... DON'T DO IT!

hey there say, locker, .... :)) oh myyyyyyyyy...
as to this quote:
If there's only 170,000 posts or so to go...
I got that nailed by tomorrow afternoon..
you sound like you're in the RANCHING business ;)
my twin buddies could USE you to nail up THEIR ol' fence posts,
that fast--with SKILLS like that, ;))
*they get a lot knocked down by not only their critters, but by near by elk, :))
cosmic... well be praying for the surgery... will send a get well, get well type thing, :)

it will never happen
SQL Server cannot deal with posts greater than 1,999,999 - I forsee a bad moon rising
WTF is everybody gonna do when the database gets flushed and everything returns to zero (not Mostel and not zeroBrown either)
there is a solution, but I will not reveal it until about 1,999,990
BTW
not 12 percent. twelve total.
can you send up the pointers to these 12 (apostles?)

I'll speculate April 14...
Of course guessing this close isn't tour de force...Dr. Ed's conjecture more than six months ago was a more audacious prophecy...he might be close
EDIT 3/23/2013: I meant April 24th...subtraction mistake. :-)
Yes, it's overwhelming how close Ed forecast this last year

My money's on Dr Hartouni. Whenever he says it'll be, bank on it. He has a proven record of accuracy.

The odds are that the two millionth post will not be about climbing- any wagers?

hey there say, cosmic... OOOOPS, as you can see, i am OUT dated, :O
oh my... well, whewwwwwww, i was wondering what could have made the second (so thought) one, needed, :O thought all was well and you were climbing, and of course:
you ARE... :)
and i was not thinking too clear, due to the clouds out tonight...
too much mommy worry, when i read the outdated note, is what it was,
enough so that i tried to cover home-base, but you'd already
batted and made the RUN and were now out CELEBRATING, :))
OHHHHHHHH my... :)

And counting.
Always smart to check the first posts on any ancient thread.
"This mouse dad's gotta put a SOCK IN IT..." from eKat on the front page kinda made me wonder if I've been here before, but that's silly. Just plain silly.
I know where I've been, and who's counting, anyway?

If posting averages over the last two weeks continue, the two millionth post will come late on April 26.
But with good weather on weekends the average for those days may decrease and bring about a later 2M event...and you might be closer than any of us, Blue!

If the current trend on ST continues, the two millionth post will be more inane than the one millionth post.
