This caused me to go "aha" and I counted up unique accesses to the URL
of the rack diagram I posted yesterday, and came up with 185.

Assuming that most people aren't using clients that automatically display
URL's in non-HTML e-mail, and that power strip configurations within a
rack is a topic of interest to a small subset of subscribers, it seems 
apparent that there are probably thousands of people reading NANOG traffic
on at least a daily basis.

It is often easy to forget how many people you're sending to when you're
sending to a mailing list.
