JJJ, FWIW I wouldn't use the User Showcase as the measuring stick.
The top 3 posters here on the forum are Mac, myself and Matt. Not likely to find much from any of us in the User Showcase unless it was done 'just for fun'.

/Harvey appears to have been online here in the forums recently, so for that I am thankful. Glad he's still around.
I still love the part on his page linked above .. "and many other famous dead people" .. sadly I can relate, though I'll always be 12 years(or so) behind him .
