Not a disagreement, but the database counts all topics ever made, even
the deleted ones (spam for example)-

I think it would be nice to actually not only count the topics but the
threads and the number of regular users, those figures are equally
impressive.
I don't know Carl, but 40.000 topics is more than what you usually get
in a mailing list in many years. And raising awareness of the forum is
always a good idea :)
