[snipped way-cool graph]
Very interesting. I hadn't thought of "draining" in terms of number of
messages, I was thinking in terms of signal-to-noise. Which is a bit
harder to graph. But the anecdotal evidence seems to suggest LUGNET is
having an impact on RTL. A *positive* impact for all readers, I think. :)
Can you do any analysis in terms of messages-per-thread? That might
indicate content-depth, and the level of community.
