Respectful Insolence

"A statement of fact cannot be insolent." The miscellaneous ramblings of a surgeon/scientist on medicine, quackery, science, pseudoscience, history, and pseudohistory (and anything else that interests him)

Who (or what) is Orac?

orac.jpg Orac is the nom de blog of a (not so) humble pseudonymous surgeon/scientist with an ego just big enough to delude himself that someone, somewhere might actually give a rodent's posterior about his miscellaneous verbal meanderings, but just barely small enough to admit to himself that few will. (Continued here, along with a DISCLAIMER that you should read before reading any medical discussions here.)

Orac's old Blog is archived at Archived Insolence.

I demand the sum of.....one MILLION visits! Muhahahahahaha!

Sometime while I was in clinic this morning, Respectful Insolence recorded its 1,000,000 visitor:

One%20million2.jpg

Hmmm. Durham, North Carolina, eh? Could it be that Bora or Abel put me over the top? Come on, boys, 'fess up! Were either of you taking in your daily dose of Respectful Insolence™ around 8:52 AM EST?

In any case, it took 2 years, 1 month, an 11 days to reach 1,000,000 visits. Thanks to all my readers. When I first started this whole thing, I never expected to get anywhere near 1,000,000.

Now let's get cracking on 2,000,000.

Mine would say "Chapel Hill". It may be Abel, or one of many conference-goers around here.

Oh, and I would unlikely come from the Main page. Perhaps Last-24-Hours. Most likely from my own sitemeter wondering what mistake of mine did Orac notice today!

Congratulations on becoming a hit millionaire. You should now be entitled to meet Regis Philbin - or at least Meredith Viera.
