Good idea. This is now on the Home page of TFP. I had to edit Tandy's first post - hope you don't mind Tandy - and move it to a different forum.

I just totaled all the replies and my calculator says the current total of all members participating in this topic (including Deb speaking for Dave) is at 524. Someone please double-check me.

If there is going to be a prize there needs to be a time frame.

My father is at 42 years.
I have no doubt he counts for something very important, but if they don't participate here or aren't a member of TFP, let's not add the years of friends and relatives.

That gives us a total of 524.

Re: Combined experience


I would be surprised if more that 40 respond. I also think the majority of the responses will be in the first 4 or 5 days, with others trickling in for a very long time.

Re: Combined experience


Just a reminder: this is a site for ALL flooring professionals - including every segment of this industry. It doesn't matter what your job in the industry is (or was), your years of experience doing it counts.

R'gards,
