Dear LM_NET Colleagues, For those LM_NET folks who might be wondering, we added our 7,000th LM_NET member this afternoon, 2 Feb 1997 at 12:14:57. Since this is another milestone for the group, Mike and I had would like to welcome that person publicly, by name. Welcome to LM_NET Beth Lommel! Hooray!!!!!! Let it be recorded that on this day, Sunday, February 2, 1997, the number of LM_NET members totaled 7,000 for the first time when the listserv software added the subscription of Beth Lommel! Note please: Since people are continually joining, signing off, and resubscribing to LM_NET, the number of members is always in flux. However, we have experienced steady growth since June 8, 1992 when we started LM_NET, reaching a grand total of 61 members within a week of its inauguration. School terms are when we grow the most, while summers are generally a time when our membership rate of increase slows down. We tend to grow fastest during September - November and January - May. It is anyone's guess how many we will have by our 5th Anniversary, in June 1997! Here is the number of members reached by first Mondays of February: 2-1-93 509 2-7-94 1,407 2-6-95 3,579 2-5-96 5,496 2-3-97 7,023 (anticipated; 7,015 at this moment) It is nice to have you all with us!!! Peter Milbury and Mike Eisenberg LM_NET Co-Owners/Moderators
