Something I've noticed...
When I edit a post, it does not always say that I have edited the post (the line that says "edited one time in total...").

It depends on whether a post has been made after it or not. PMs always have it, though.

So, have we determined why there is a discrepancy between the "Posts : 67,478" on the main site and the "Total posts 66455" on the board index?

It comes from the different ways they are counted. One day I'll find the energy to look a the way the board counts them and do the same on the main site. However, as I'm going to America on Tuesday morning until Friday morning, I'll probably be killed and will never get to do it :)

It depends--where in the Americas are you going? And are you involved in a drug ring? Most of the killings around here are drug-related.

I'm only joking about being killed. I'm off to Durham, North Carolina for a meeting at Duke Uni. This is where I'm staying:

Actually, it's a very pleasant area. With any luck, you'll find a little bit of free time to enjoy it.
