In the last 10 years we have had major blocks in October on:
4-20 Oct 1994
17 Oct - 4 Nov 1997
30 Sept - 8 Oct 1998
11-22 Oct 1999
5-21 Oct 2002, which some of us seem to have forgotten
already.

Surely the issue is the duration of the blocking? It started at the
beginning of August!

Well, actually, Paul, you just snipped the line where I gave an
example of a 90+ day sequence of blocked types - in
autumn 1993. And you also snipped the first line which
described the "issue" that I was raising. Duh.
