But that number comes after some serious SQL crunch... I see 190830 because I've filtered out sports and some other sections. So it's not just a general number, it's a personalized number which respects your settings.

OTOH, the twit filter is not carried over... which might come useful. I already have some ideas whom to ignore here and not there and vice versa.

And amazingly, after adding one person to the filter, the number of messages is reduced to 175577... Is it possible that one guy wrote 14000 messages in chatter? Tsk tsk... (now someone try to block me, refresh, unblock and see the difference... then scare me with the difference).
