   And totally wrong!   
      
   You have posted to RADW (and other newsgroups) and everyone   
   on those groups that isn't using NotKnow as their NNTP service   
   sees them. So Dave's stats do not represent the groups "as   
   posted" like he claims... they just represent what posts have   
   been seen by Dave.   
      
   So as Dave doesn't represent the whole of Usenet, his stats are   
   not representative of the people posting to those newsgroups.   
   Meaning... he's wrong!!!
