We've already said everything worth saying?

Actually, I'd be interested to know whether those peak periods
indicated on that chart coincided with one or other of the troll
attacks we had. About as successful as a Glasgow suicide attack, they
were....

But, yeah, things are quieter than they were a few years ago when,
IIRC, we actually hit 1000 posts a day sometimes.

Due to wear, tear and budgetary cuts we've now only got a finite supply
of typewriters to distribute amongst the infinite number of monkeys.
