The statistics of who posts how much seem to follow most of the internet
sites and mailing lists that I belong to. It is usually twenty to fifty or
so folks who generate 80 percent of the posts. I think this is now the norm
for internet posting, and we are fortunate to have those people who will
donate their time to share their expertise.
As a friend of mine said "Never deprive yourself of the joy of helping
others."
