I happen to collect these messages in a database since mid-2005. As a point of comparison, the numbers I get until today for pgsql-general are 3348 messages that appear to be outside of any thread (no "In-Reply-To" field or "References" field that points to it, and subject does not start with "Re:"), the total number of messages being 110233, in 19855 distinct threads. So at least in this time period, I can't see how it could be said that there's a 40% probability of not getting a reply. If we consider that there are 3348 failed attempts at spawning a thread vs 19855 successful attempts, the ratio would be about 6:1, or a 17% probability of getting no public response.
