In summary, PF passed 50,000 today. Some people are suspicious of BobG's screenshot of Nabla as the first name among the "currently active users".

There's something that's always bothered me about that screenshot mattmns posted back when we got 30,000. His username on that screenshot was the wrong color. It was blue instead of gold.

Hmm, was that the original? I am not sure when/if this was changed, but usually your own user name is listed first! Maybe it was me
For example:

I was looking closely at your picture Bob. You did a nice job, but you messed up one little thing: You put my name before marcus, which does not follow the spelling rules. - #12
