This is why I think that if there was a time-per-post metric, Rain Man would have about 10 times the amount of the next highest poster.

Thanks. It did indeed take about 6 hours to put together. I finished a few work deadlines and had some time tonight.


I was surprised at the result. We've mythologized the 70s and 80s, but it's just about been matched in the current era. Of course, the decline from the early 70s through about 1980 is still epic. We're low now, but Carl's peak didn't match the dizzying heights of Hank's peak, so it wasn't as big a fall to get here.
