OK, new thread for the next week, now that Pittsburgh has another Super Bowl ring.

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 714 processors and 271 user names. We have a number of new users in the team, with over a 50 computers now from GetLoaded.com, a trucking support website, all contributing while their owners ply our freeways keeping the nation moving.

We now have 22 members who have contributed at least 10,000 points each. Greenbo, stylin19a, and smith288 are the latest to reach this milestone. Chesterbelloc and mediamole will join them this next week. Great job! Even dfwddr will make this mark one day ;`)

Even more impressive, our team now boasts 180 members who have folded at least 1,000 points. That is more than the entire number of folders for our erstwhile left-wing environazi competitors!

Free Republic Folding@Home Stats Page

On the global front, Free Republic Folders is now listed at # 268. We will be in the Top 250 on Wednesday!

As we continue to grow there are a number of milestones coming around the bend:

Top 250 by February 10
Top 200 by the end of the February

We have 1,350,000 points so far and have folded over 10,000 WU. We will soon 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.

Sorry, I messed up the ping to you in the previous post - Who knew there's a FReeper here named Durango also?? Maybe he wants to fold also???

I just checked my Folding@Home folder in with my program files, and the entire folder is about 11.0 mb. Your mileage may vary...

My folding folder is 7.2Mb. The size will vary depending on the task your computer is working on. It does store log files that could be removed after Stanford gives you credit for the work, but they are only text files and aren't taking up much room at all. I have been folding since Christmas and my logfiles are 72kb.

Welcome to the team!

Imagine how you would feel if you had to give up one of your own WUs to give him the lead.

Oh, well. At least it was a good, fair game. </snigger>
