You ask, the Office of Brin-L Statistics delivers. (Check has not arrived yet, though). I have put up a page with histograms of the posts per month of the current top-20 posters. The period covered is January 1999 through January 2002. http://www.graphs.brin-l.com/ Nothing fancy, but the best I could do on short notice. You may notice that some posters have become considerably more prolific in the last six months or so, BTW. I mean, there is a reason the Y-axis goes up to 210... I look forward to reading your comments.
