That's how many people entered Day 1B today. That's even less than I thought, and brings the two-day total to 1,989. If 3,000 entered each of the next two days (and that's not happening) the total would be 7,989. I do think 2,000 a day is possible; that would be 5,989. Anyway, here are the numbers:

Day 1A: 1,287 (2007) vs. 1,297 (2008) vs. 1,116 (2009)
Day 1B: 1,541 (2007) vs. 1,158 (2008) vs. 873 (2009)
Day 1C: 1,743 (2007) vs. 1,928 (2008) vs. ?,??? (2009)
Day 1D: 1,787 (2007) vs. 2,461 (2008) vs. ?,??? (2009)

Total: 2007: 6,358 vs. 2008: 6,844 vs. 2009 ?,???.

Day 1A decreased by 14% from 2008; Day 1B decreased by 25%. We'll see what happens with Days 1C and 1D.
