Apparently The Watcher's Council has taken notice of me...
Each week they nominate posts for consideration as best Council and Non-Council posts of the week. I'm a nominee this week (#7 under Non-Council Posts) for this story, for which I'm still getting at least 10 direct hits a day.
The Watcher's Council is usually politics/news-oriented, so I was quite surprised to see my post nominated. Wish I knew who to thank for it...
