Re: number of help topics per day

[Keith Hood <klhra -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

I can't call it a statistic, but I used to work for a
a man who told me that for billing purposes, I should
figure on an average of 3 topics a day, and 3 hours
per topic. I can't remember now if he cited any source
other than his own experience.
