It's *fairly* safe to say I think that in terms of # of messages, it's never
been higher in my memory (back to 2002).
[Though the MB is misleading, this year has marked a pronounced and sudden
shift towards people who top-post and don't trim the quoted parts (e.g.
one-line replies to whole rulesets). I blame mail clients that hide the
quoted parts by default (though I don't know if that's the reason, and
"blame" is the wrong word because it's mostly minor style preference).
There - a wholly Agoran quibble to a congratulations message - but the
activity, however measured, and sentiment very appreciated].
