This brings up an interesting news-feed phenomenon -- I only get around
750 newsgroups -- and my traffic is usually (don't have the figures in
front of me) somewhere around 8mb.  10-12mb is not at all uncommon.  
Right after the holiday break, one day was 15.5mb.

It's interesting to see so much of a variation in what people are reporting
for traffic.
