>>Calvin Hsia told me how the MVP idea started. He said that he kept a list (in his days before he was with MS) of the top posters on the Compuserve Fox Forum. This was refered to as "Calvin's List" and the people were named "MVPs" (Most Verbose Person). Eventually MS adopted the idea and the rest is history

Bob,
It's absolutely accurate. I was there. I even have copies (somewhere) of ALL the non-private thread messages around here somewhere. I was one of Lisa Slater's designated archive helpers. I remember quite clearly how Calvin posted his lists.
