I'm confused.  How can there be 80-100 immediate-delivery subscribers,

(...) Because there aren't 80-100 subscribers. :) The symbols are histogram *percentages*. @ means 80%-100%, so it would mean either 4 or 5 people out of 5 in this case. --Todd (25 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
