damn_registrars's Journal: Is Everone Else On Vacation?

There is a front page story featuring ron paul that is almost 9 hours old, with fewer than 400 comments. I was expecting to see the usual bump of paullower comments propel it into the stratosphere by now.

Yes

Except me.

Been a while since I last saw you around here - how are things?

Loving it.

I'm not on vacation either

But a lot of folks who were off Wednesday are taking a four day vacation that gives them a week off.

I was wondering if something like that might be going on that would explain the lack of traffic here. There has been a Ron Paul article on the front page for over half a day already and it hasn't had nearly as many comments as one would expect by this point in time. Only 561 in 13 hours - and not even in the top 5 yet for the week.

I'm not on vacation.

I just don't care. Seems to be catching.

Considering we seem to have the least-commented-on ron-paul-is-teh-awesome story of all time on the front page right now, you may be right. The apathy indeed may have become wildly contagious.
