Two weeks worth of data

If you look at the country/flag counter, that is who and how many visited this blog in the last two weeks.

870 page views.  Which is strange, this blog is not even ready to go online yet.

When people decide what is evidence, Science suffers

What is not repeated, is often misunderstood.

New counter, old counter

The new counter (by country) has been a huge help.  It isn't just Google bots and Bing hitting the blog.

The old counter doesn't store more than a years results, so here is an update from that little freeware tool.

Feeling lonely is actually bad for you.

  What a surprise!
From Salon

Cacioppo, an evolutionary psychologist who has studied social connection for 30 years, stresses that chronic loneliness has well-documented health effects. For decades, scientists have known that social isolation impacts our health in ways comparable to the effects of high blood pressure, lack of exercise, obesity and smoking. In short, being lonely is bad for you. But what Cacioppo and his colleagues have found is that it's not literally being alone, but the subjective experience known as loneliness that causes harm.
"Whether you're at home with your family, working in an office crowded with bright and attractive young people, touring Disneyland, or sitting alone in a fleabag hotel on the wrong side of town, chronic feelings of loneliness can drive a cascade of physiological events that actually accelerates the aging process," he writes.
While brief periods of loneliness, such as your first semester away at college, or following the death of your spouse, doesn't appear to cause grave harm, chronic loneliness does. The long-term lonely are likely to suffer more diseases at an earlier age, and die younger than those who feel close to others. By middle age, the lonely drink more alcohol, eat more fat and exercise less than their more social fellows. The experience of feeling lonely -- whether or not you're surrounded by family, friends and co-workers -- impacts stress hormones, immune function and heart health.

The impossibility of the numbers

According to the web counter this blog, with it's huge lack of updating, is still recieving massive amounts of visits.

It has to be search spiders or something.  Or is the web so damn big that just anything gets attention like that?

Added a new counter to see if anything can be determined.
