I agree.

I think we saw maybe 100/day during the recent wars, but lately its
been maybe 20/day? I dunno. I'm bouncing between OS's these days so
only check in every 3 or 4 days and so far I haven't a lot of traffic.

The difference here though is that the *quality* of the material here
is very high so you tend to have to read everything, and read much of
it carefully. But that's A Good Thing (tm)! :-)
