Understood. I've thought about diving into some short time interval of the past and trying to analyze it in depth, to produce something on the level of my weekly reports. It would for sure be slow going, though, even for an interval of a few active days, since I'd probably need to keep doing side searches. (I also sometimes fantasize about a lightning quick Agora-focussed email archive search tool.) Misrepresentation is a risk but c'est la vie. I think there's even some risk of that in my current weekly summaries. - Falsifian
