I decided to run my [analyzer][3] over the complete podcast text archive. This
is from episode 001 to 371.
#### Get the files:
for i in {001..371}; do curl http://www.grc.com/sn/sn-${i}.txt >> sn.txt; echo $i; done
#### Clean the files up:
cat sn.txt | LC_CTYPE=C tr -cd '[:alnum:] [:space:]' > csn.txt
#### Analyze the text file:
cat csn.txt | LC_CTYPE=C tr [:space:] '\n' | grep -v "^\s*$" | sort | uniq -c | sort -bnr > count-combined.txt
#### Result:
