    Question How does one go from a seedling...

    to a sprout and then root? Is it how many posts or is it in how long you've been here?

    Hi Walkin',

    It's according to the number of posts one has. I don't know how many and all that, though. I just looked up one day and noticed I had gone from a sprout to a root!

    I believe it was between 33 and 36 when I noticed I was a sprout.

    And I believe it was 100 to be a root.

    That was funny, Melissa! :) :) :)

    I noticed the root, sprout, seedling thing when I first posted. Funny, I connected the "root" with moderator or founder...I guess it is the thought of root in a unix machine...techno speak....Once I realized the connection between post numbers, I thought now that is clever. Kudos Alissa!

    I keep wondering how many it takes. I guess that is kinda like how little kids will sit in a garden and watch their seedlings grow...What a nice image!

    Ooo- luckily my theory wasn't right. You'd be a 'senior' seedling

    1-30 = seedling
    30-100 = sprout
    over 100 = root
