Yes, but some of the list's most interesting and/or helpful members
would be in that small fraction. 

I would be deeply sorry to see Keith, Geoff, Bill, Bruce, John, Dick,
Maggie, Chuck, DaLy, and several others limited to one post a day (not
to mention an unnamed acerbic poster whose views I often disagree with,
but whose posts I usually enjoy).  In fact, out of Guy's list of people
who posted more than once in that 24-hour period, there are VERY few
whom I'd rather hear less from.
