GOOD GRIEF! Traffic’s already over 100K, again! Hmm. I blame the cold weather, keeping people close to their nice, warm computers. . . .

UPDATE: At 11:45, it’s 111, 449 — a new record by a mile. Must be damn cold out there.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Reader Adam Woolcock emails: “Don’t credit the cold weather for all your hits! Here in Melbourne, Australia it was 43d celcius here today (109 fahrenheit). If any of your readers want to swap and come live in this inferno i’ll be happy to take offers.”

Er, well, in your case maybe it’s the nice, air-conditioned computer room. . . .
