[Deptheads] Preliminary final numbers

[Eric M. Aldrich I]

Yeah, there's no way to know as we do not track them. That's why any  
number we give is at best a really good estimate. I know how many  
paid. I know roughly how many volunteered. I have a good idea how much  
overlap there was between the two groups. We have no clue how many  
just come in. We round up always, and I can always say it's a  
conservative estimate (if anything we slightly understate our numbers).
