LoC is not an accurate way to describe productivity. It doesn't take into account how much work has been done, just how much your codebase has bloated. http://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&story=Negative_2000_Lines_Of_Code.txt

Some days you'll net none, other days you may net a few hundred. Depends heavily on the project, and the people involved.
