Thread Name: What has happened to Mudcat?
Subject: RE: What has happened to Mudcat?
Well, I noticed a point either today or yesterday at which EIGHT out of the top TEN threads were music-related....

"Lies, damn lies & Statistics"....

(I dont mean to suggest that Guest is lying, I dont think he or she is, just that different people see different 'patterns' in things, often depending on their own perceptions).

I've said it before, but at times like these, there are certainly going to be a lot of non-music discussions going on. Maybe a lot of non-'political' discussions are going to happen too....people are understandably going to look at other 'everyday' things in their lives, things AWAY from the political situation... like naming a Dog, oe a Kitten.

Maybe the emphasis on what threats get posted to (or even started) at diffeerent points in the day... maybe as people get up in a morning & comment on Political news in the Newspaper... maybe at work, when they can't consult their music collection, or are restriced to what sites they can get away with accessing from work, they cant contribute muh to music threads... In the evenings at home they can do that, or they watch the News on TV, & post a comment pertaining to that.

I certainly think that there seems to be a lot more posts going up then there were before 11/9....but thats no surprise either...
