[support] D6: setting up a mantra counter

[Marty Landman]

Dear Sherab,

I don't personally see anything wrong with 
creating a content type and role just so they can 
work together. However I don't see that solving 
the problem necessarily. You still have to rely on each person

1. registering
2. being accurate in their updates

Thinking it over I bet you could make a view, and 
use it in this case like you'd use an excel 
spreadsheet to aggregate and total all the nodes of this content type.
