It is linked a lot so thats not surprising. What if we wrote the webmasters and requested they remove the link and replace it with the text?? Its not like its hot news anymore. Its been two weeks now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Gah!

Won't work. Didn't work for Firefly's cancellation. This is a tech thing I THOUGHT I'd addressed. Last time.

Our wings are not tired.
I might post the vote results a little late. I have to go to a customer’s and set up their DSL router and the VPN so I can work on their system. Supposedly the line is to be installed today. IF Bell South does their thing and all goes well then I will have access from their offices and can test by accessing b.org. If the phone company lets me down, or I have no skilz, then it will be 1-2ish PDT before I post results.
Why does work have to get in the way of Buffista time?

The good news is that there no summary or anything, just this:

And it is the last link on the page. If I was searching, (and I didn't know us from Adam) I wouldn't be inclined to click on it.

What is even happening?
If a bunch of us go click on the other links that google brings up, can we send the Buffista link even further down? ijs

I think it helps more if you link to other things...

I think that the google ranking has to do partly with how many places link to you, as well as the tendency for people to click on the link. But my understanding is pretty basic.
I know that when people googlebomb, they want people to link to their sites, because that's how they get a higher result on Google.
