As I think someone else pointed out, many posts, but not as much said,
and by fewer posters.

So you retract your "shrunk to historically low numbers" statement
then?


Interesting numbers. I would have bet $100 that posts were DOWN last
month -- but I guess it's just that *good* posts were at a historically
low number...

All I seem to recall about Septemer is a zillion posts blasting some
dude named MXMANIAC (or something like that) -- and not much else.

The thread about massive GA subsidies had lots of interesting data on
actual capital outlays, amount of revenue derived from AV gas taxes
(about 5% of trust fund), etc.

last month. On the other hand, it looks like George Patterson posted from
two e-mail addresses that if combined would have placed him second by this
point in time. All useless trivia, I know!)



My goodness! If I had known it was a contest, I would have posted much more
often. :-)

It doesn't work. We ignored you for weeks, and yet you returned. :-)

And I wonder why he doesn't get home until late :-).

Of course I think this months highs are caused by the overwhelming
desire to answer mxsmanic even though we know he's a troll, or an idiot,
or something! Even I can resist.

PS. You have way too much time on your hands if you are researching all
this!! :-)
