Hit 1,000 pounds of beans roasted on my home setup, never expected it

I keep a log of every roast I do, just weights and notes. Last Sunday I added up the totals and landed at exactly 1,012 pounds over 4 years on a Behmor. That's a ton of coffee for one person to drink or give away. Has anyone else tracked their roasts for a long stretch, and what number shocked you when you finally added it up?

My buddy Marcus had a similar shock a couple years back. He'd been roasting on this old Poppery II he got at a garage sale, just messing around. When he moved apartments he found a shoebox full of his little roast log notebooks, sat down and tallied it up, something like 780 pounds over 5 years. He said the wildest part wasn't the number, it was that he'd given away almost half of it to coworkers and neighbors, a lot of it to people who didn't even drink coffee.
