Sometime Monday afternoon or evening at approximately 4:40 p.m. Central Daylight Time, Millard Fillmore’s Bathtub will pass passed the million total views milestone.
It’s nowhere near the readership of Pharyngula, Eduwonks, Daily Kos or others. For some reason, many readers feel no need to scrawl on the bathroom wall here (comments are always welcomed, edited only for profanity), so the comments don’t reflect total readership, I think.
Thank you to each and every reader, and especially to the faithful readers who keep coming back day after day. Thank you to the large handful who send story ideas.
In periods like the current one, when there is so little time to post on key issues, it’s especially gratifying that readership continues to rise.
Thank you, Dear Readers.
Congratulations, Ed! More importantly, thank you for taking the time to produce one of the best, most informative, and thought-provoking blogs I’ve yet managed to come across on the net. I don’t usually comment, but I find your blog invaluable.

True. But I have priorities higher than blogging and arguing right now.

If we only joined the fray when we thought we’d win, where would we ever get great stories like the one about the Athenians at Marathon, or the real story behind the movie, “The 300?”

My own blog, preferably. But then again, I moderate comments and you don’t (except under dire circumstances). If I knew I had a decent chance of winning or at least a draw, I’d gladly start one here, though. It depends.

So, Hannah: Do you have a better place to start an argument?

You’re welcome for some hits. I usually don’t comment because history/economics aren’t my forte…and because we disagree on some central issues and I’d prefer not to start an argument over here. But I do check here approximately daily.
