OK, new thread for the next week.
First, a big shout out to the SETI and BOINC members who have added CPUs to the effort. Remember, its Team 36120, NOT Team 0.
Next, congrats to all for bumping our team up to 512 processors and 220 user names. We have a number of new users in the team, with over a dozen folders now from GetLoaded.com all popping onto the hit list this week.
We now have ten members who have contributed at least 10,000 points each. Klutz Dohanger, Malsua, Ken in Texas, Andrewksu, LSimpson, kingu, Uriah, arderenne and rach_FR have all reached this milestone. Papasmurf and Senator Bedfellow will join them this next week. Great job!
Even more impressive, our team now boasts 132 members who have folded at least 1,000 points. That is more than the entire number of CPUs folding for our erstwhile left-wing environazi competitors!
Free Republic Folding@Home Stats Page
On the global front, Free Republic Folders is now listed at # 401. We will be in the Top 400 on Sunday!
As we continue to grow there are a number of milestones coming around the bend:
Top 300 by February
Top 250 by the end of the February
We have 800,000 points so far and have folded over 6,400 WU. We will reach an exalted mark of folding a million points per month, each and every month! Fantastic!
Thanks again to all that are helping us advance science and promote the peaceful use of computers.

Want to see why we fold?
Papasmurf: Think you don't make a difference?
We are about to pass "folders for peace". I'll give 'em a backhand as we go by.

They grabbed your graphic and posted it. Now, they're falling all over themsleves with glee.
Teehee, Come into my web, said the spider to the fly...
Alas! alas! how very soon
This silly little fly,
Hearing his wily, flattering words,
Came slowly flitting by!
With buzzing wings she hung aloft,
Then near and nearer drew,
Thinking only of her brilliant eyes,
And green and purple hue-
Thinking only of her crested head-
Poor foolish thing! At last
Up jumped the cunning spider,
And fiercely held her fast.
He dragged her up his winding stair,
Into his dismal den:
Within his little parlour,-
But she ne'er came out again!
:O)
P
Snort!
LOL - I just checked and they haven't caught it. ;)
Hilarious.
LOL! It took me a while to figure out what you did. Perfect!

185. Time for a new thread?
This takes a long time to load.
Thank you. They still haven't pulled the link, that graphic is still posted over there. If we're really lucky someone will hit the "abuse" button on that Lousy-FReeper-Troll, Mabus, and he will be tombstoned...lol.
OMG! That's hilarious!!!
:O)
P
Just pulled it. But, at least I got to see it first.
I laughed so hard I got tears and snorted snot, too!
:O)

Don't worry, I will continue to post graphs depicting our relative point totals, feel free to copy and use them. (I know that your are too dumb to do your own analysis, I'm feeling charitable.)

187. The idiot freeper couldn't take the heat and changed his graphic
I've asked the mods to either delete the graphic or my post. I did capture it and will repost it if you'd like in the new DU Folding Thread once it is created. :rofl:
That's truly funny!!

Hooray--my son joined the team! He's not a FReeper, but he enjoyed the Seti project, and I persuaded him to join our team. His machine sure folds faster than mine....
