Well, there's a surprise.

I send this response, go to bed, and this morning I'm all eager to see=20
what people think, and, I'm a little surprised that there's no reply's=20
to this mail, but I think, really, who wants to be doing things between=20
midnight and 9am on a Saturday morning, so all are forgiven.

Then I look at my apache logs, and they are huge.

There have been a few 'people' who have inspected the site, but,=20
surprisingly (and I say this because this will be the first time ever=20
that there has been an actual web page (rather than a re-direct to an=20
https page) at the address), but, google has already 'crawled' the site.

Go figure. I guess I had better get a robots.txt installed.... but holy=20
cow, batman, Google is fast!

The joys of the 'net.
