I submit to you that on the day of December the 14th, upon posting about The Abominable Charles Christopher and extolling its virtues, I did link to PvP as an example of an “online heavyweight” as a contrast point.
At that time, one Scott Kurtz, writer and artist for PvP, caught my referrer and visited my website, only to discover the post about TACC.

Subsequently, Kurtz went on to post about TACC on his own website, endorsing its quality and exposing it to his vast audience.

There is some certainty that this will, in course, represent a much-deserved “pop” in TACC’s readership. Thus I believe I have proven conclusively that had I not written my own post, Scott Kurtz’s discovery of TACC — and the subsequent traffic spike it will enjoy — may have been delayed by several days.
That… that’s it, really. I just thought this was kind of neat, and this is the first thing to actually make me feel like a weblogger (no I will not use “blogger” forget it).

Thanks for initiating the flood of traffic, Mike! Unfortunately, it crashed the server and I’m still trying to figure out how to fix it. None of this will stop me from updating TACC this Wednesday.

You are the Kingmaker!
You are correct. I found your link after you mentioned me and then I found TACC via your post .
Karl, I am so sorry for horking your website. I did not mean to do that. I just wanted to share your work with my readers.
