The most unfair side-effect of the post count freeze will be that it may start to seem like Drew and ChadTower actually have lives.

The aluminum foil still works, you just have to ground it well.  I suggest an 8' copper ground rod, driven into moist soil.  Connect to foil hat with #4 cable, then stand in a lightning storm, under a tree, on a hill.  Oh, hold a golf club up in the air, too.

Noone will be able to read your mind after that.
But wasn't it fun to think you won the lottery, just for a second there???

Count up your number of posts that have been relegated to Post Hell too.  Don't forget to add those in.  You've got at least eleventeen.  I think your maths is missing that crucial element

Your eleventeen+ posts that are missing say otherwise.

It might not have been your fault though.  One of us chuckleheads may have dragged your missing posts kicking and screaming down into the gutter with us.

If it was your fault, welcome, fellow chucklehead ;)
