I thought I would look at a few of the statistics for SHS this evening. I am pleased. In the last 30 days, we have had more than 45,000 visits by some 36,000 distinct visitors. That’s about the size of a good crowd at Dodger Stadium. And the dailies are up a couple of hundred a day over a month or two ago.
Since I put up the flags a little more than three months ago, we have been visited by people from 167 countries out of 192 or so in the world. Our newest addition is Angola. So, we are definitely international. I also receive some very nice private correspondence these days reacting to SHS from all over the world.
Tell your friends and neighbors to jump on in: The water’s fine. Thanks to all for supporting and contributing to the success of SHS.
