There are at most two dozen or so regular posters. Who knows how many

approximation for this.

So far, almost 80 people have viewed my two videos on YouTube (79 for
the heron and 77 for the salmon). I suspect all but a small handful came
to them from ROFF. YouTube is deluged with videos. Most of them get very
little attention, including ones far better than mine.

We can safely assume that there are about 80 ROFF readers with
high-bandwidth Internet connections.

I'm proposing an experiment to get better data. Click on one or the
other of the YouTube videos and post a comment, identifying yourself as
being from ROFF. You don't even have to watch them. I don't care. Just
say "ROFF" or whatever else you want in the comments. You can even
insult me if it makes you feel good. :-)

Thanks for the videos. I didn't leave a comment on either one.
Watched the salmon last night, the heron today. I don't recall ever
leaving a comment on a Web site (other than the WFFB), nor do I
subscribe to many.

I am, by the by, low bandwidth, so I often wait for others to respond
in a group to give me a clue as to whether or not it's worth the time.
These were.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless. Really.

Don't ask me what time it is lest I'm of
a mood to tell you how to make a clock.
