altivo...people weirdness, of course.
So I attached a Google analytics script to the link that was being hammered so hard, and just the overnight statistics seem to indicate that it is references from Google images. The picture of the baby musk ox, which is admittedly cute, is what has attracted all this attention. It must have taken from February to May for the image to get into Google's image index. So now I have thousands of people every month ogling a picture that isn't even mine. I stole it from somewhere, probably Google images, I don't even remember. I think it came from the University of Alaska though, and sure enough, they used to have such a photo but removed it... probably because it was eating up their bandwidth.
Now to put a similar script in the current newsletter, which is also getting a disproportionate and unexpected number of hits...
