Good thread today Homer. Not that often you get to the second page of comments. I know a lot of people enjoy reading these threads more than posting, but it’s nice to see a lively discussion.
I haven't done a real count but the number of replies has been consistently larger the last month or two than it was previously. That probably correlates to an increased number of readers, though there is no way to be sure. Anyway, it is extra gratifying when it happens on a Sunday edition, which takes extra work to put together.
