When I did a search of the STATISTICS about the two groups at
present, I found that there are not 18 subcribers to scistatmath,
while there are 1926 subscribers to sci.stat.math.

Where do you find those?

I learned a couple of days ago that Google-groups makes
available the number of its subscribers, so I did some browsing.

I saw 1292 for sci.stat.math and 13 for scistatmath. Today, I
see 1296 for sci.stat.math and 15 for scistatmath. Typos, or
some other source?

That 1292 suggests that there *are* still 100 lurkers who
never post, for every poster in a month, since it reflects
only the minority who read through Google-groups.

Here is a question for anyone -- Is "scistatmath" from Google
going to be a Google-only group? My Usenet provider lists
over 100,000 groups, including a variety of mis-spellings, but
it did not include scistatmath when I last checked.
