As he does at the beginning of each of his weekly charts, for his end 
of September report Harry wrote:

Richard queried:

Richard Gillman does a monthly (computer driven) survey of all 
playlists submitted to folkdj-l.  He estimates there are some 400 
DJ's who submit playlists.  His programs can survey about 60% of the 
playlists submitted.  Last year, his surveys represented about 
155,000 airplays.

These surveys along with the full archive of submissions to folkdj-l 
can be accessed through the folkdj-l website at:
