Given the kind of data you are assembling, especially if you can put
together good historical data, it would really be fun to attempt to create a
predictor for near future list activity.
We could have an extropian weather report... "Low traffic, mild posts
expected"... "Hot and stormy, a flame front is moving across the list". That
kind of thing.
Do you think the really big flame wars might be predictable? That would be
something!
