Sometime in the night, Laelaps passed the 100,000 visit mark! Thank you all for helping to make this blog what it is now; it would be quite different without the support of so many readers and other writers.
This blog also just recently passed the 2,000 comment mark, and I'm trying to think of a prize for the person who makes the 5,000th comment. I've got an extra copy of Ralph O'Connor's The Earth on Show on hand, as well as a few other books, so maybe I'll make up a little paleo prize-pack.

I just passed one milestone (my first blogiversary) and am quite close to achieving another (30,000 spam comments blocked). And yesterday, StumbleUpon started sending a whole lot of visits to my brief write-up on Richard Dawkins and the word Darwinism, so my traffic quadrupled while I wasn't looking.
