I also want to thank all of you for your inspiration and motivation. I just compared my Million Meter certificates. I hit my first mill. on Nov. 27, 2006, my second mill. on Jan. 1, 2009, and I recently hit my third mill. on Dec. 11, 2009. This means I erged one million meters in one calendar year. This is largely due to the great camaraderie, support, and inspiration all of you provide. Thanks!

PS (A special thanks to Kona and her occasional substitutes for keeping track of all our accomplishments and posting us in lights. Your time and effort is appreciated.)
[/b]
I just want to say I second the above! MANY thanks to the team and especially to Kona2 for all her work and dedication to the team. Last season was just over a million and this season I hope to reach 1.5 million (maybe 1.6!)

I conscientiously researched and re-entered all my (and AJ's!) lost meters before I rowed yesterday. Then, when I downloaded last night's meters, my too-smart log card also added back those lost meters. Dang, for a moment there, I'd double-dipped and earned a whopping $10 for my charity of choice!

It's all good ... the random meteor showers keep us alert.
