                        My dad's favorite line was

                        "Don't call me Sir, I'm a Sargent and I work for a living."

                        He is a CMSgt, Ret, USAF

                        Also, I think the Ranking is based on recent activity, not necessarily the total number of posts.  Got to be more than 14 people with more posts than me on here.

                        For those who can't live without a ranking system; if you click on a members name in a post and scroll down to the bottom of their profile it will tell you where the person stands in the posting rankings.  For example, if I'm reading mine right I'm number 128 in terms of number of posts, Philp is number 14, and Major Gronovious is number 4 ( way to go).

                        And you are already almost maxed out on globes!
