I was discussing posting rate with Aberforth's Goat (Mike Gray) and I
suggested that I was probably not the berposter any more and that Penny or
Catlady had probably toppled me by now.  Mike though it was probably Dee.

For a number of reasons the volume of my posts has dropped off considerably.
One reason is that I am now receiving the messages by e-mail and, concurring
with Penny's comment over in the main club, finding the sheer volume of
messages at the moment a bit much.  I don't really have time to read them
all properly, and that tends to affect what I might say in return.  Also, I
don't want to add to the problem myself and I think this has put a
psychological block on what, and when, I post.  I guess that won't stop me
posting the odd one-liner, but I am more conscious of not wasting people's time.

I guess I should respond to Penny over in the club, to help reinforce the point.

BTW, a few people have misspelt my name (not just you, Paul - not picking on
you, honest - others have done it).  Am I correct in assuming that 'Neal' is
a more common spelling in the US? If that's the case, I'll forgive this
massively insulting error; if not, I'll just have stamp my feet and look
annoyed.
