Let me tell you in reverse the 1000000th posting was:

http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php/topic,13745.msg657304/topicseen.html#msg657304

Which gives as the last six digits 657304, I had previously taken note earlier in the day, what I call the reply number, and waited.

For example, the 999990 posting the latest message as 657294.

Taking the current reading of 625851, it is less than 657304, this accounts for the replies/posting that have been deleted or removed.
