ATOT Effect Requested

[MotionMan]

EDIT2:

The website is back, but I think we killed the counter.

Another unforeseen side-effect of the ATOT Effect.

I will have to be more careful in the future.

EDIT:

OK, I am calling this off. You guys are awesome, but I think you killed the server.

Thanks for the help!!!

My 78 year old uncle has spent a good portion of his adult years writing, rewriting, editing, reediting and otherwise massaging four essays about his search to find himself.

Until now, the essays have only been seen by the select few people that he has given a copy to, including family members, friends and some college professors.

I say "until now" because about a week ago, at the request of my uncle and the "hard work" (as far as he knows) of yours truly, the essays have been posted on the Intertubes!!!

The essays themselves are only available in pdf format. You can get them by going to nowhere

Here is the ATOT Effect part: nowhere has a simple counter at the bottom of the page. It is currently (07/18/08) at about 150, most of which is either my uncle going to check the site and from my testing it.

I would LOVE for him to go to the site and see the counter at something well over 1000.

So, ATOT, please do your magic by simply clicking HERE.

Of course, I will give updates here as the numbers grow and if I get a reaction from him (which I expect that I will).

Thanks in advance.

Agreed, F5 works. Now 500+.

I'm bored, so I'm gonna F5 it all the way to 1000.

"It has to do with
your making a record of your life, an autobiography in some form."

I would drop the first "your" in this sentence from the foreward.
