CISSP #'s

in SSCP
I've looked and found different numbers but does anyone have a general idea of how many CISSP there are in the world? I'm just curious.

Thanks in advance.

    Whatever, man. My 10 key skills are tight. I demand a recount.

    Has the number of SSCP's hit 1000 yet? I haven't check in quite a while. ;)

    The mid 80's is what I was seeing also, but I figured I must be missing data somewehre. I thought there were a lot more. Thanks for everyone's input.

    That is significantly lower than I thought...

    I would say that we are a VERY unique bunch. 7,000,000,000 in the world and 86,000 CISSP's means that there is an average of one CISSP for every 83,000 people in this world. Show me a mathematician who wouldn't consider that a unique number and I will eat my hat.
