I just noticed Betty's hit counter, hit 54 million sometime yesterday. That's counting since September, 2004. I don't know how many hits since 1994 when we moved from the Usenet (newsgroups) to the internet.

Congratulations Betty, the real count may be 108 million or more. I think I started visiting in 94 or 95 as that would be when I got a computer from my friend. He bought a new one every two years or so to keep up with the latest technology for his businesses. I was still trying to figure out the reams of perforated paper for the printer and trying to learn the little bit he was teaching me.

Going by averages that I remember since the 1990s, it likely would have been around 90 million by now, but maybe over 100 million. In those old days we were getting around 4-4.5 million a year, every year. Our busiest year was 2015 though when we made just barely over 5 million hits in a year. Our worst year was 2012 at just under 2 million in a year.

Thank you, Betty, for all you've done over the years. I think I've been coming here--on and off--for almost two decades and it has certainly been comforting for me to be able to communicate with others with similar interests and experiences. To ensure the site keeps going even longer, I just sent in a donation of which I'm sure you can put to good use.
