    What in the... —Calum Tsang
   So, I've been out of the loop for a bit, primarily due to work, and I've been reading all of this stuff post PDX (which I wanted to go to, but never had the points on my Aeroplan to afford it) and scratching my head in shock on some of the posts (...)

      (...) have for you two: #2 David Koudys: 1693 #12 Chris Magno: 694 #13 Calum Tsang: 687 #37 Dan Boger: 427 I included Calum in there because I thought it was odd that he and Chris posted almost exactly the same number of messages. (21 years ago, 19-Feb-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
     
          Re: What in the... —Benjamin Medinets
