For instance [Mike Lenehan](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=20) has 5 posts, the last one about a year ago. He could even post here and still keep his 0.00 rating. He also appears to work for either the Chicago Reader or The Straight Dope.

Actually, we’ll never know who the people that are the real answer to this question are – they’re folks who registered, lurk regularly, but have never posted and never will. They’re at a 0.00… that is not rounded.

**Mike Lenehan** was Cecil’s second editor, before **Ed Zotti** took over the duties that he’s performed for lo, these 28 years now – if he seems a bit touchy at times, dealing with Cecil on a personal basis for that long will probably do that to you! 🙂

There was a recent thread on what **Mike** ’s up to these days, although I don’t recall what it was and don’t want to stress out the hamsters by searching for it.

Well **Polycarp** , you’re to blame. Your remark triggered a sudden obsession in me to find this thread. So I mercilessly whipped the hamsters to find it for me, to no avail. The posts going back for a year that contained ‘Mike Lenehan’ were no part of a thread such as you mentioned. No fair teasing us newbies with smatterings of possibly interesting threads. 😉
