Hi Mac,
'tis the nature of things. Participation has been falling from the
peak of 1999-2001, down by about 6dB on average, but 10dB for July (if
posting volume were power, mostly dissipated heat; double that if you
think of postings as lost potential).
The posting count follows the classic battleship curve of emerging
then declining fads, fashion, schools of thought, what-have-you social
trends. We are now as engaged as we were in 1995. Consult:

I would not speculate or offer that counts indicate quality, however.
