Hi Beej (also everyone, first message I send to the "public" newsgroups)

I wanted to thank you for these scripts and results. One of the
obstacles I've found as a usenet newbie is "groups discoverability",
i.e.: I'm not even sure what is available (and active).

Browsing E-S gets quite boring/useless after a while ( lots of 0's in
the messages columns...)

I wanted to ask: do you know what the "number of messages" represents?
is it a total of messages ever, last month, last year...?

(the tables in E-S don't even explicitly say what the number is, but I
guess "messages")

I wonder if everyone has the "discoverability" problem, or if there's
something/some place I don't know yet where some more stats/activity are
tracked.

Anyway, thanks again!
