Oh well, if i get after a WMCC in 1997 about 1000 private emails
a day, from which several hundreds are different people, if chessmaster
sold 4 million copies from chessmaster, and if i hear from *many* people
who follow just *now and then* computerchess, if the dutch computer
chess association already has like 800 members, if CSS sells tens of
thousands of copies each few months, then just when talking about
netherlands+germany the number 4800 is already real bad, as there
are more people now and then following computerchess already in those
2 countries, which are only a small part of the world.

Still didn't count big countries like: united states, france, chili,
russia, ukrain, hungary, poland and a lot of other countries where
quite a number of people potential now and then can follow such a group.

a big multiple of it, but for any web based application which is so
slow like CCC (not the fault of icdchess or CCC admins, but the
slowness of the lookup to the web itself).
