Yep, you heard it here (well actually I heard it elsewhere and then posted it here). But, the sad news is that Karl Barth passed away yesterday....
This was my message to the author:
Ja ist es so traurig, uber den Tod Ihrer Fische zu horen. Ich bin sicher, daB er mich verbindet, wo ich bin! Ihr Freund, Karl Bart ;-)
Indeed.... A voice from the 'other side'....
My best German, together with my deepest sympathies!

Not much internet traffic from South America, Russia, and Central Africa....
Cable must be down. Maybe Starbucks' wifi has gone down again... I hate it when that happens. So, see if you can get someone from there to visit my page - you're welcome to post a comment and 'claim a dot'. I know who owns PE, and at least on of the UK ones, Pretoria is obvious too...
Who else is out there!?
are you feeling lonely?
I fish often in your pond.
Barth died 9 December 1968. Or am I missing something?
Ok, got it. It helps to go to the links first.
Score one for Maritzburg. That's until you guys send us to some other remote spot...
Thanks Pete and Mike!
All the red dots in North America are CIA agents checking up on my site because Gus mentioned nuclear weapons and I posted about GW.
The two Australians checked in because I will be in Australia later this moth (they're both from internal affairs).
The North Africans were looking for weapons, and the Southern Europeans came to check that the North Africans did not stake any claim to the site.
The red dots from the UK are from a few ex South Africans who long to buy a pair of 'Bloubul' vellies... I think that about sums it up!
Ha ha!
Hey everyone, thanks for visiting! It is a joy to have the traffic! Let's see if I can keep it.
