Actually, most days it probably will be zero. Three is the maximum I'm
allowing myself in a single day.
Why? Well, as I said, for the reasons Pierre outlined in his recent post
(limiting myself to save time; spend more time reflecting on and/or
researching an issue before commenting; etc.).
Why three? Because three is what it (evidently) used to be. And three
allows me to comment on up to three different threads -- which is the
maximum I think I've ever participated in on a single day. But I think,
above all, as I learned in my youth: three is a "magic number"
