I just realized that I have NEVER gotten an email from anyone visiting this site - which confirms my suspicion that a) no one visits this site, b) no one who actually visits likes/hates anything here enough to comment, or c) the type of people who visit this site have not yet figured out how email works.

I've noticed that the number of visitors to this site has been increasing lately. At first I thought it must be due to the high-quality(?) content found here, but then sanity kicked in, and I realized it's because I've dropped to the bottom of the SETI@home top 1000 home user statistics. I'd like to thank all of you who took the time to examine the bottom of the list, but it's time to get these old computers crankin' to move myself up a little higher in the stats!
