Oh, I get it! i wondered where the heck those questions were coming
from, but now that you explain it makes perfect sense...

Perhaps just encouraging people to visit with a bunch of links instead
would allow for a simpler class of questions, or at least questions
that don't seem to be so obscure.

Although, obviously the traffic generated seems like it is the real
issue.

Maybe trying to get some mainstream web coverage from places like
Xlr8yourmac or Maccentral or even slashdot for the contest would really
drive your counter crazy???

Thanks again,
Marty
