The secondary peaks 2-4 years out are interesting. Or perhaps it's better conceptualized as troughs the year after. Wonder what the reason is for that?


The availability of the substitute "last year" for "2013"?


Thats clever! The longer a year has gone, the less likely you will say "last year", "one year ago", "two years ago" and rather go for the years "full name" like "2014". This could be a reason for the revivals.


I was thinking about these too. I did not came up with an idea what it could be. Maybe just noise and we interpret something into it?


Elections?
