Default Re: Two plus Two posts - Probability.

I use to look at these numbers and they follow, more or less, an exponential decay curve. You could dub it - The Losing Interest Curve. The more "famous" the poster the longer the interest or half-life, just like the exponential decay of a radionuclide. Thus, David Sklansky, Mason Mulmuth and Ray Zee are usually analogous to Uranium-235 while others are more like Radon-219. This is how people respond to others or to ideas.
