A few calculations

Well, no actually. Just ended up posting the numbers to the Lochac Shambles list directly. If you care, you can probably read it there.
I should probably stop poking now...
Majority, HAH!!!
Though if I look now, I was out by 1 on the NZ members (sorry)... Given the rest of the rounding, doesn't matter overall.
Ok, so I get pedantic over weird things...

Haven't Lochac-listed since 1998, because too many (e-mail-access-at-work-idiots) hit "Reply" to every e-mail in the stream, then added a puerile one-liner at the bottom (*some* of us were paying for downloads).
Otherwise, perfectly personable persons, *in person*, turned into Raving Loonies on e-mail, because they [obviously] had not developed anything approaching a polite ("civil"?) frame of reference for dealing with electronic communications.
Do I miss out? Maybe. Do I care? Not enough to wade back into the Miasma...
To quote a Wise Person:"And it's still cheaper to fly to New Zealand than Western Australia."
