Folks we have passed an important milestone. We now have over 400 members on InternetSAR.org this is up from 40 members yesterday morning. How's that for growth?




I wonder if all these new members signed up just to check out the process and once their curiosity is satisfied, they won't continue participating. Ken, in case you have a few minutes you don't know what to do with , maybe you could get us some statistics of how many of the new members are actually actively searching.




Without looking if I were to wager, I'd say that for every ten people who sign up, only a few would stick around for the long haul. This is the nature of all volunteer efforts. The thing is the core group that has helped get InterentSAR.org off the ground is that 1% of volunteers who were left over from the Steve Fossett search.
