That's a lot of posts!
That's cool. What I find amazing is that Dave H, MJ and Rosie account for about 1/5 of those posts. There are a couple others that could be thrown in there who have passed the 5,000 mark also. You guys are great. Thanks for helping out the Logos community to much!
And you've joined the 3000 club Philip! Congratulations, and congrats to Logos!
:-) Thanks. You just had to mention my post count, didn't you? Lets see which of my two or three Logos brethren out there mention the quality of my post counts first :-)
I've always appreciated the quality of Philip Spitzer's posts. I appreciate many types of quality.

Well put Todd...[:P]
I shall resist further comment, because I'm sure Jack and Robert will be here soon[:O]
Speaking of Phil(l)ips...Todd's almost to 3K as well!
But didn't I just see someone over 9K?

Well, my posts are lowly, and we all know the Bible looks highly at the lowly.

You've made great progress in your humility. [Y] You must be very proud!
Don't think there is anyone at 9k yet
Rosie has a mere few hundred to go and Dave is on about 7.5K

Ordered my humble button from Amazon yesterday. [:)]

I'm crushed that you would think that I could ever insult Philip. Look at his avatar. He has his left front paw on the keyboard. I cannot pick on a fellow southpaw. [H]
That is a very good comment Todd. I said I could not pick on Philip. I did not say that I would not applaud someone else who did. [6]
ROFLOL. Thank you Todd.
Thank you Todd.
Hey! What about my thanks! it was at my expense.
<to Todd under breath>it was pretty funny :-)</to todd under breath>

I think it is pretty bad that Tom and Todd treat you like a dog [^o)]

Jack, this is not an insult! *smile*
However, I was wondering about navel gazing in North Carolina. What's going on there????? I can post the image that came with the article if you desire......
North Carolina
Researchers Take Aim at Belly Button Bacteria
Those who may have picked through their belly buttons before to pull out lint or all manner of crud may see humor in this: North Carolina State University has launched the Belly Button Biodiversity project to examine just what's lurking in there.
Jiri Hulcr and his colleagues launched the proect to people in microbiology and teach them about the bacteria that is found on skin. Researchers opted for belly buttons because, as they said, "no one volunteers when we ask for armpit samples."
Seriously, however, the scientists noted that belly buttons are relatively isolated, making them a place where microbes are safe, and can grow easily. Of course, bacteria growing on folks with outies might dispute that. Bacteria on folks with innies have another advantage: few people wash the area with soap.
Additionally, since, as Hulcr said, "the belly button doesn't produce any special secretions or oils, such as other protected body parts, such as the nose or armpit, [...] the microflora inside the belly button is fairly representative of the rest of the body."
Volunteers are given a sterile cotton swab, and then are told to turn it around in their navel three times and place the swab in a vial. Scientists culture the bacteria, and once they have grown enough, they are photographed. The volunteers are given a sample number, so that they can view their bacteria online.
Participants also submit information about their habits and other details. For example, they are asked how often they wash their navels, their age, sex, ethnicity, and where they grew up, as well as whether they have an "innie" or an "outie."
Although the participants are anonymous, IDed only by a sample number, the researchers themselves submitted their own samples. Looking at some of the samples, one has to wonder if a potential date looked at them, they would change their mind.

No wonder I am a Duke fan [6] (that demon is the wrong color, though). Makes me so proud to know that my son-in-law is an alumnus or NC State. I need to send him this news clip [:D]. Thanks Milford.

I think I wold not die from frustration if you did not post. Just leave the pictures to everyone's imagination. [H] (those aren't sunglasses; they are blinders)
