Running a week behind. Sorry about that. Already have the list for OotB #9 and plan on having it up in the next day or so. It's fairly labor-intensive and I'd look at dropping the posts, but the OoTBs draw more hits than darn near anything else on the blog. Well, except for "Well, There's Your Problem... ". Must be pulling in all the junior Mythbusters looking for a T-shirt or a mug.

Also, I'll be putting up the website/blog's stats for the last year-plus so y'all can get a look at its growth. This past week was the website's most active with 88 hits with September having 303 total, the most ever. For the year, we're up almost 60% (2009 page requests in nine months versus 1189 for twelve). At nearly 700 a quarter, we've got a reasonable chance of getting to within striking distance of 3000 for the year.

Consider that a teaser. It doesn't have the graphs and those are the website's numbers, not the blog's. And now for the reason we're all here:
