It always seems that milestones occur when we Europeans are tucked up in bed, and our friends across the pond seem to be posting like mad, so Thursday 03:00 G.M.T.
Or a student maybe?

Just curious - how do you find out how many posts have been made in over all of h2g2?

Would 5,000,000 million be the total for just h2g2 or for all of the dna sites together? I just checked Talk Buffy and it says a very similar number, despite the fact we have nothing like the number posters or threads that h2g2 has

The 5million would be the total for all of the DNA sites.
