Clearly there has been a contest to see who is most obsessed with me... so I figured I would do the contestants a favor and rate them. I looked at the Google archive and found how many posts each of the following have posted to CSMA and how many of those posts they mentioned me. I looked only for "snit", so when then call me "snot" or "Michael" or otherwise try to be "clever" in their trolling it might not be counted... so be it.

Here were the scores (percentages rounded):

Adams: 1052/1080 = 97% Carroll: 3031/3050 = 99% Sandman: 4840/6580 = 74% Wally: 379/ 477 = 79%

Ok... it seems like Adams and Carroll are well ahead with Sandman and Wally trailing badly... but Sandman is the only one to have a website where he mentions me over 100 times (it changes, but currently at 144... GROSS!). <http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Acsma.sandman.net+snit+OR+glasser>

His data is incorrect (as usual) though.

Snit
Again: it comes from Google. Now try to show where Google is wrong. Good luck!

So once again you are seen formulating a question around an answer that you have already decided that you need to receive? Sad to be you Snit!

Sandman
These are the times each person has mentioned some other in their *unquoted* text in the last 30 day period (which of course is the part of the post that's important when trying to determine if someone has been talking about someone.

Snit
Google does not split quoted from unquoted... so you are now looking at different stats than I am... in other words you are not saying my data is wrong,

Given the stated purpose of your data what part of .... "His data is incorrect" don't you understand?

you are saying you would prefer to look at other data

Correct!...accurate data! you stated the objective of the data Snit...to define who is obsessed with who! As such your data does not achieve that objective...therefore it is wrong!

Sandman's data does a far better job in achieving *your* objective...get over it, and learn the lesson that Sandman gives you wrt data collection!

- data that allows you to more easily avoid saying my name and making it look like you are less obsessed. No dice, you silly troll.

The fact that you cannot see the worth in differentiating between quoted and unquoted is a good indicator of who is being silly here!

And, of course, it does not alter the fact that your obsession is shown via your site...

That you are obsessed with? What are the latest numbers there Snit? LOL!
