Every now and then I look at the Google Groups
"About this group" page for roff:

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.o...ly/about?hl=en

Of the most frequent posters several have somehow been given
"ratings". I haven't figured out how one gives or gets a "rating"
but most everybody who has a "rating" is rated 3 stars out of 5.

rw has 10 "ratings", average 3 stars
'Tripper 8, average 3
I have 7, average 3
Tom Nakashima 23, average 3
Scott Seidman 55, average 3
Louie LaPlac 1 "rating" of 3
and roff's star poster BJ Conner 1 "rating" of 4 stars.

There is one other frequent poster who has 33 "ratings"
to date and he averages 1 star out of 5. I won't name
him, that is left as an exercise for the reader. ;-)


There are many ways to measure things......am i right, tommie......or am I
right.....huh?

One way of measuring participation in this particular Usenet newsgroup that
I've never seen explored (to the best of my recollection) is the nature of
threads started by individual members. Who knows......it might be
revealing......ainna?

who, to be sure, has never been especially tall.......but has also never
spent a great deal of money for a mail order foolproof "make yourself
taller" course.
