I got curious and wrote a little perl script to grok the harp-l archives and see who the most prolific posters are.
Here is the results, showing every "From" address which has sent more than 30 messages to harp-l since July '95 (when harp-l moved from WKU to garply).
Note that my simple minded code will only have picked up the more obvious cases where one person is posting from more than one account (or the account name changes format somehow).
I don't think I need to make any editorial comment on the figures.
