Ask the various AI chatbots some questions about Alembic instruments... the one with the best answers has probably been busily scraping this site  ;D

9,281 yesterday... cooking with gas now.


I'm just curious is all. I remember one time the Harwell-Grice Band domain got taken over by a chain of Chinese restaurants. Somebody forgot to 'pay the guy' or something. Our web traffic exploded overnight. Unfortunately all we had was t-shirts and cds. No egg rolls or duck sauce. It's a running joke in the band now. "Gabe, just pay the guy... you remember what happened to the website!"


Seriously, from a couple hundred visitors a day to 9000+? Doesn't anybody else think that's weird?

That might the reason for increased traffic to my website.

No, no one cares

Like you previously suggested, maybe it's the appearance of a new website address that's attracting probes.

Thanks Dave. You or Adriaan can lock this one up, and I won't mention it anymore. It just seemed strange. From now on I'll just message one of you. 😉
