Steve, "newbie" is mostly an attitude these days. I don't know how to turn off the newbie/old timer/etc machine. A handful of years ago Jon Amo set up the post-counting system and set up the labels -- and I don't remembefr why. I think there were some rewards - maybe free shopping at his on-line store. But nowadays the labels proclaiming you as a newbie are just words. You're welcome to put "No, I'm not a newbie any more" as part of your signature line, okay?
