Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hey, somebody put the plug back in the drain. We had more than 990 
members 24 hrs. ago, and now we're down to 981? I'm supposed to get 
an email from Yahoo every time somebody resigns. I haven't received 
one notification since the recent plunge. In December, we were 
getting ready to celebrate what looked to be the inevitable 1,000 
mark, and now we appear to be on a downward spiral. Is it something 
we said? Actually, it's probably a rash of dabblers and non-English 
speakers who are going in and out over the weekend, but can't any of 
them just join without opting for email and just stay enrolled? 
Geesh. We're going to have to start giving away free toasters.

I'm reminded of a line from This Is Spinal Tap.  The band's 
popularity isn't waning, it's just that their appeal is becoming 
more selective. :-)

Chris,

Thankfully, there's a good, or bad, excuse for every occasion. To me, 
the DTXpress Group is like a good head of hair. Sometimes it needs a 
trim around the edges so that it can grow longer without the ends 
thinning.

Ed,

I noticed that there was something wrong with the counter about a 
month ago, but haven't had time to contact Yahoo to clarify want is 
going on. 

In the past two months we have added something (I can't log on to my 
office email, it is down, so these numbers are approximate.) 75 
members and lost 25 members but the number has stayed the same on the 
counter.  My thoughts are that some of the members are being put on 
the bouncing list and are not being counted. Even when I started 
keeping track of members, the numbers never really balanced out with 
the counter here. I will put that on my list of things to do to 
verify with Yahoo, what is and what is not included in the counter.

OGD,

As always, thanks for your vigilant eye.

Hi!

I'm still here.  I've been working 50+ hours a week and still manage to find 
time to practice every day, jam once in a while with other women, collaborate 
with my new guitar player, and hang out with friends.

Steph,

Glad to know you're still with us. I've seen your traces at Zilla's 
place.
