Or are you suggesting I come try to fix ProNJ?

proNJ is beyond repair; the state is insolvent! Gov. Corzine is looking to increase the Turnpike and Parkway tolls by %800 (yes, eight-hundred percent) to help pay the bonds down on some of the debt. This will only cause more issues as those increases will be passed along to the state resident consumers making residence in an already high cost of living state even higher. The feds won't step in because the state assembly is D'uh, the state house is D'uh and the governor is D'uh, and the federal congress is now in D'uh control. The D'uhs won't make any waves about the fiscal improprieties of their own party faithful in an election year (hell, election year or not they probably wouldn't), D'oh!. The pigs are at the fiscal trough and, as anyone who has ever been on a farm with pigs knows, you can't move them from the trough until it's empty.

Anyway, enough about the proNJ. I can change the request rules to lengthen the period between making requests. It is now 1 hour with a max of 10 request in 24 hours. I could make it 2 hours to start and cut down the maximum number of requests.

The only other thing to do is write some code to randomize the items in the request queue in hopes of offering a fairer chance for all. This goes against the grain of everything I've learned in Markovian Queueing Theory.
