When I'm on the field, it doesn't take more than an inning or so before I can tell if a person has "skills". Likewise on the internet, it doesn't take more than a couple of posts before you can tell if they have a clue. Bottom line, don't judge ability/knowledge by a (number), rather form your conclusions based on content and observations. Just my opinion

Sal: I think mcrowder qualifed his comment well enough with the part you left out:
"Granted, it's entirely possible that someone could post here thousands of times and still be an idiot"
However, I agree with you primary point and would add that Jim Evans' next post on the internet would be his first.
