SIX MINUTES ?  You've got to be kidding.  I can never get off this site in less than half an hour!  Who can thoroughly read even one post in six minutes?

Anyway, I want to add to the chorus of praise and thanks to all the contributors who make this such a priceless resource.

Sitemeter.com tracks the time between clicks--if you look at the front page for 20 seconds, then click on an article, read it for an hour, then close your browser, sitemeter only records 20 seconds.  So 6 minutes is really pretty good--it suggests that people are reading more than one article a visit.

Congratulations on your traffic, and thanks for the invaluable service!

Congrats!!! Keep up the great info & interpretation! Thanks!  Actually since when online we are tying up our phoneline I load the page then read offline. So maybe more than 6 min.

not sure on the median/mode/sd.  There's a distribution there, but that's about it.
