When fingers fly, traffic spikes

Ian Schwartz has been linked on Drudge ("FINGERS FLY ON CNN..." -- with a picture, no less), and his server seems unable to handle what is obviously a huge spike in traffic.

I can't open it, so this post will serve as congratulations to Ian (and a reminder to me to try the link later).

UPDATE: I finally saw the video, which is another example of a small group of people (there were a hundred or so demonstrators) achieving enormous political leverage they do not deserve. They know that few people agree with them, so they concentrate their resources on carefully selected targets -- in this case a media bus -- in the hope that their hapless marks will confuse intimidation with "democracy."

It often works.

Speaking of being linked, your "Terrorism Sucks -- Fundamentally!" entry came in as #1 on google when I searched for terrorism sucks. Nice.

Yeah, well the last time I looked I was falling behind in the values department. (CV used to be number one values-based site, but I guess the competition has beefed up the necessary Google verbiage.)

I do appreciate the encouraging words!
