22. Zero by the function. I use the Self-actualizing method, skipping past those known and skipping out

from those discovered. Over the years I have *shocked* by asking some to put ME on Ignore. It's amazing that some dear members just can't stay away from posts they don't like and are compelled to voice their almighty contempt, usually in the first (and only) Reply. Most irritatingly, my erratic throwaway posts get immediate flaming and brazilian numbers while what I spend 45 minutes of insight & craft on (yes, I *do* have some of these) are *immediately* sunk to oblivion.
