Carolinabirds is 4 years old today, 12/13/2000. Two years ago we had 17
members. By the first month, we were up to 104. After a year, 262, at two
years, 368, and at three years, 438. Now, at the four year anniversary, we
just passed the 500 mark with 506 subscribers, plus there are untold numbers
that read C-birds at three different web sites. Thanks to all of you who
make this group a success! Thanks for being considerate of the readership
