Hits are nothing... sales are everything.

No sales = no advertiser.

Yes, but research shows that a certain percentage of hits turn over into sales, so the more hits, the more likely an ad is to generate sales.
A website with lots hits, or a forum with lots of membersis more attractive to advertisers.

Yeah Padma why don't you contribute so you can get the little contributing member tag and then you can get all snobbish on us being a contributing member and all?

If you've got a problem with the Padma, may I suggest you don't drag classified members/contributors into it.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Good call, Michael. But Padma be wary of people that don't follow their own advice. laughing6-hehe

Filippo

Actually I do subscribe to the classified section and have done so many times over the years. So that makes me a contributing member right? laughing6-hehe

Actually I have no problem at all with the Padma and enjoy his post and work. My post was a joke in response to nyaazip post that I guess went over everyone's head including Padma. I made this joke since some people think that have the right to look down on others who don't contribute financially. So lighten up everyone!.

Actually, I have lost over 40 pounds recently, eating organic soup.

I'm less hungry as well, seems when you're getting all your vitamins and minerals, the receptors in your blood vessels and various organs don't send hunger signals to your brain.
