Over 3,000 hits on that gif alone, since last night. Wow ...

Feel free to take the image itself, and pass it on, rather than the URL; as
I mentioned to Jay, my server will be coming down in a few weeks.

Is this the first accurate measure of the number of lurkers here, or an
accurate measure of Barbara's email list size ? How many hits (on a gif) do
you normally get a day ?

P.S. I thought it was pretty good and passed it on to about 8 Americans I
know who would appreciate it.

Well I posted it to three newsgroups ...

news:soc.culture.french
news:alt.activism.death-penalty
news:rec.travel.europe

So that would explain the high number of hits.

As for how many hits a day, no idea. I don't usually bother counting. :-)
Let's see ... I posted some photos of my cat ...
url:http://www.zeouane.org/chats/ ... and got ...

lievre# grep "rideau" /www/logs/access_log | wc -l
797

... and those were posted a long time ago. So 3,000 hits in 24 hours is
_very_ high, I'd say.

And of course, it's off-topic, but no more so than any of the other
threads, but in case anyone wants to see how the moggie has grown ...

No, I sent the gif, not the URL.

Actually, I have two email lists; the select one filters out
Republicans.

Ah, an e-mail list with taste ? Artificial intelligence _is_ coming along
in leaps and bounds, isn't it ..? ;-)

But what is the difference between a Democrat and a Republican or maybe I
should cross post that to uk.rec.humour
