my husband David was wondering at the bandwidth usage around here. I took a look at my stats page (he’s the text-based log guy, I’m the GUI-fied stats girl) and did a little Googling around: Lost in Technophilia : Bye bye news.allresearch.com You Are So Banned! Corporate America Is Reading Your Blog I’m thinking I want them banned, too: news.allresearch.com ? 614 614 2.48 MB 30 Sep 2004 – 23:11 sp1.allresearch.com ? 26 26 60.54 KB 14 Sep 2004 – 14:08 news.allresearch.com ? 1224 1224 5.06 MB 31 Oct 2004 – 23:04 news.allresearch.com ? 247 247 1.43 MB 04 Nov…
