Lumière:
I was just looking at the Bettermost Stats page, and would you believe that this thread is in the Top 10 (for number of replies)?  :D 
Jeez, it has picked up over the last couple of days hasn't?

Woowee!  ;D

MaineWriter:
Wow...top ten! I'm impressed.

I think this is the first thread that has ever been featured on the "news" too. What I am really enjoying is that we seem to have a good mix of humor and serious discussion. Some threads are just silly, some are just serious, we seem to have found a good balance between the two.

Anyway cut to the chase of the above article

Google Trends: "Brokeback Mountain" vs "gay sex"
Blue is the search hits for "Brokeback Mountain", red is "gay sex".


After point D, why do you think the interest in “gay sex” continue to grow?  I think all the female BBM fan fiction writers doing research for their stories definitely helped keeping the no. up.  ;D

p.s.  This google trend tool is really cool.  Some search terms show strong correlation, some don’t.  You can search trend like "Brokeback Mountain" vs "gay sex"

I tried BBM vs Jake Gyllenhaal, and BBM vs Heath Ledger.
