    That's the number of members as of this posting. When did we get past 20k? It seems like only yesterday that this thread was posted...

    Well, member #20000 can give a clue, but we need to account for accounts that were deleted. Maybe member #20059 is our 20000th member, after all

    No, I had no clue either.

    Most are used to it, though :P

    Don't worry ethic I got the joke :P

    Consider that we have 20,652 members and the latest member to join is #20679 then I'd venture its safe to guess that http://cboard.cprogramming.com/member.php?u=20027 was the one that sent us over the top.
