Ecolog is growing fast, but how many were there at the start? I used old data, some jackknifing and R's optimization routines to try and figure out how many ecologists were there at the start. Not sure if I'm at all right, but you can check out the plots and code at my site: http://currentecology.blogspot.ca/2012/06/how-many-ecologists-were-on-ecolog-in.html
