I've heard this, but putting the numbers there in print makes it more profound because alone the numbers can seem small and it's easy to forget they add up. Thanks for putting this info in a slightly different perspective.
Hope you get 25, the list, especially the size of it sounds awesome.
Its valuable to find a list that works for you with the kind of content you enjoy. My list would mostly be more of a guide to show that this sort of thing is available if you search a bit.
True, but there's a good chance of finding interesting authors on a list like that. Very valuable on many levels. :)
