<p>Cool. Meaningless...but cool.</p>

<p>Fantastic, I guess! Who did the ranking?</p>

<p>Who put out the list?</p>

<p>Hey, TD, where’s the link to this listing? So what if it’s meaningless! We love Smith and that’s all that really matters, so indulge us.</p>

<p>CC did the ranking. It’s the ranking of LAC’s by number of posts on CC. :)</p>

<p>A little artificial, the numbers being boosted by the occasional ■■■■■, without whom we couldn’t have done it.</p>

<p>It’s about as valid as anything else, maybe a little bit less than being #1 in National Science Foundation research funds over the past 10 years.</p>
