    Nope and nope.

    The fourth was Cal Coolidge with 1,203. I never would’ve guessed him.

    That’s interesting that all of the heavy EO users were in the early part of the 20th Century.

    I bet if you look at day 1 EOs the numbers are heavily skewed toward the last 4 undoing their predecessor’s EOs.
