25 March 2003: "Global reach"

I'm glad I got round to installing a counter last weekend, because traffic has gone up heavily since then. Salam Pax I ain't, but let's face it, that guy has a way more legitimate claim to fame than I do (stay safe, Salam).

Nevertheless, I'm pleased to say that, as far as I can tell from my exciting new counters, my material has been read around the world: in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Canada, Estonia, Germany, India, Japan, the Netherlands, Portugal, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. In the words of Louis Balfour, "tonight, we are the United Nations of Jazz." (Nice.)

Coming up in the next few days, I hope to put up some essays regarding the rules and customs of land warfare; issues covered will include Camps X-Ray and Delta, the Israeli settlements policy, and the increasing number of rules reportedly being violated by Iraq. Stay tuned.

Oh, and hey, regards go out to the reservists of A Co., 5-159th Aviation, which shipped out from Fort Lewis on Sunday, bound for Iraq. Apparently, these guys are quite the heroes. They operate CH-47D Chinooks, which are just awesome machines.
Clear skies, guys, and come home in one piece.

"my material has been read around the world"

Man, you're my current starting page. I know you keep saying anyone armed with Google could do this. Yeah, maybe, but probably not as quickly, as concise, as incisive and as well-considered in connecting the dots.
