#1 Ummm... is fed.us a government URL? I thought I'd read about a bunch of .mil and .gov visits, and he has three. Some looking suggests that fed.us is Forest Service and of course, faa.gov is the FAA. Wow! Write an article that google will pick up on Terrorists Attack Golden Gate Bridge and someone at the FAA looks at it. Oh, yeah, and Forest Rangers (isn't the Golden Gate Bridge area a national park or something?)

Gee, I'm being watched because someone from a government URL looked at a public posting I made that contained the words Terrorist Attack. Duh!

#2 fed.us is used by USDA, Fire & Aviation Management, FERC, U.S. Courts, and sundry other U.S. gov't entities.

It is kind of odd that the log ins mentioned only logged onto an archive almost two months old.

#3 "Every dedicated artist is attempting to create something that has a life apart from the creator, and which could even put him in danger. So artists engage in the ultimate blasphemy, the literal creation of Life. Impossible? In the magickal universe, anything is possible."
- William S. Burroughs, a truly patriotic American & currently deceased author

Currently deceased? He's coming back soon?

#7 OMG! So I set up a counter on my blog this morning so that I can see where my visitors come from. Then I go and blog about a dirty bomb. A little while later I check the visitors and OMG! Someone from Oak Ridge National Laboratory. I'm being watched! I hope they don't read what I wrote about Belgium.

#8 Is nipr.mil just the generic host name for secure gov connections?

#9 According to my referral logs, my little enterprise has had quite a few visits from goverment and military sites. Personally, I'm greatly honored to have any visits at all from all of them. But I'll work on my raging paranoia.
