~94 to go, so maybe in the hour or two.

I thought the Random Thoughts thread had more posts. Oh yeah, the random thoughts thread has thousands more posts than the fukushima thread.Astronuc said:Mar 18-11 (helped by the Fukushima NPP accident)

At 09:40 pm EST, still ~50 to go, so perhaps within the next 30 to 50 min.
The rate is about 1-2 posts/min with occasional spurts.

It does, but Random Thoughts started ~ 18 months (Sep17-09) before Fukushima, and activity only picking up after the Fukushima event.Evo said:I thought the Random Thoughts thread had more posts. Oh yeah, the random thoughts thread has thousands more posts than the fukushima thread.
When it started doesn't matter, it's the overall contribution to the post count that matters, Random Thoughts has contributed more posts than a natural disaster. :tongue2:Astronuc said:It does, but Random Thoughts started ~ 18 months (Sep17-09) before Fukushima, and activity only picking up after the Fukushima event.

Isn't most of the Japan thread just copies of the news and other announcements? You are really touchy about that Japan earthquake thread. This thread is about the number of posts.Astronuc said:Top 5 posters:
rootX 1,732

Evo 1,180
lisab 1,125
Views per post is another important metric.

Actually, it's a compilation with some analysis, and it is probably the most complete record of the event on the internet. Note that we had to split off topics into three or 4 other threads, and unfortunately, we lost the other large thread on Unit 3's explosion.Evo said:Isn't most of the Japan thread just copies of the news and other announcements?

No one cares, this is about the 4 millionth post.Astronuc said:Actually, it's a compilation with some analysis, and it is probably the most complete record of the event on the internet.

I want it.micromass said:Thanks!
I already have two gold memberships though, so can I donate this to somebody?
Drakkith said:Greg, did you ever in your dreams imagine PF would reach 4 million posts and half a million threads when you started it?
LOL!Greg Bernhardt said:When I started PF, all I cared about was getting that extra credit to pass my physics course :D
