In short, your comment was an overstatement.

Thanks for clarifying that. I'll bet there is a lots more traffic now than
there was in 1982?

Likely enough. There has been an enormous expansion of usenet traffic
since then, but not so much in the C newsgroup. I opine that the
difference in traffic between net.lang.c in the 80's and comp.lang.c
now is about a factor of two or three.

Society depends on vigilant, public-spirited people like you to keep the
rest of us on the straight and narrow. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your kind words and your thoughtful consideration. I
have every confidence that you will reform your ways.

It is not wise to examine apparent coincidences too closely.
Sometimes they are not coincidences at all.
