By tomorrow morning, we'll have been at this for 853 days.
Let's assume we're at 38840 posts by then.

(1,000,000 - 38,840) / 38,840 = 24.747

853 • 24.747 = 21109.191

21109.191 / 365 = 57.8334

We'll we done on Saturday, February 22, 2070!

Ooh, you have reminded me; I record this thread's count for statistical purposes on the 24th of each month, since that was the original start date... I'll do that now...
