in the late 90's, the summer slow-down used to hit really hard (for me, anyway.) The past couple of years haven't been bad at all. I think it might be partly due to the fact that in the early days so many of the porn-surfers were college guys, who were away from their computers. all of that .edu traffic would disappear for a couple of months. as more people come online, the trends are changing. maybe some day it will level out !
