You’re too reasonable for words.
Nobody else knows either, how the MIL quantify public sentiment, or measure the “misery index”.

The predictable gal frog marchers, maybe a half dozen, including the drop-by, use the goofiest of excuses for grousing against posters who dare use any sources other than their own. ZZZzzz.
All that aside good solid posts such as yours are seldom ignored. They may not receive a lot of comments “every time” but those who really count and there are many here recognize excellence in posting.
