@#40 Leva,
Actually, Scalzi moved the Whatever to Wordpress several months ago. I would be willing to bet his traffic is similar to ML's... plus or minus one order of magnitude :-)
I have heard of way more problems with MT than WP, and no code-related problems with WP scaling.
WordPress is dead easy to stand up, and I believe there are some decent antispam plugins for it, as well. If I were doing this, I would get a WP instance running on a local machine, grab a copy of the site's database and try to use WP's import feature to slurp in the existing content. Seeing what fails will give you a sense of the scope of the work you're looking at... not to mention how well the formatting survives the transition.
At least it pushed the previous brouhaha ("Writing the Other") onto the back burner.
I like Bob Goldthwait's take on it:
There's only one way to tell if that's a U.S. soldier, or an Iraqi soldier:
"Van Halen sucks!"
"Old Van Halen or new Van Halen?"
"It's OK, he's one of ours. He's not down with the Van Hagar."
