I did feel he left out one important statistic: participation! I was about to e-mail Sami when I realized he must be tired! So I visited Sami's home page and collected whatever information I could. Here it is. The first figure is the number of entries and the second figure is the number of people involved; the second number is higher, of course, because of joint entries, but equally important because what we really want is more involvement, more people to share the joy of our popular music.
