He claimed they were real, and I merely pointed out that we have to
take his word for it.  There is nothing, including list membership
levels, to indicate that his number is anything resembling legitimate,
as others have pointed out.

Joop could provide proof of the membership, but he won't.  Until then,
a question as to the legitimacy of his claims (esp. when he is using
those numbers to claim legitimacy for his effort within the DNSO GA)
is certainly not an attack, but a legitimate note.
