>>Yet another tribute to both you and Tim for the outstanding .NET support you provide here. I know I read everything either of you posts. Terrific work, guys. Not taking anything at all away from those who have already been officially recognized for their contributions, just saying I hope the club gets a little bigger.

>>MVP! MVP! MVP! ;-)

Maybe things have changed. It has been several years since I was an MVP, after 5 or 6 years in. (I was dropped at the right time, so that isn't my point; I was no longer earning it). Back then it was PURELY a recognition of online contributions. There were a few legacy MVPs like YAG and Lisa Slater who had a sort of lifetime status, rightfully so, but that was not the norm. Let's not forget the MVP program was Microsoft's way of offloading tech support to the community. That was why the program came to exist. Maybe the considerations have broadened since then.
I can tell you seriously that in my own case it was all due to online posts. I wasn't an MVP because of public speaking. By the time I was the head of the Chicago user group and spoke at Whil's conference I had already been in the program a couple of years. I was in there because I spent a ridiculous amount of line answering questions. And I wasn't Mr. Chatter like now.
