Even Further Evidence of Our Influential Readership

Andrew Sullivan, welcome to the Big List. After my esteemed fellow stain Snacksy the Kid posted about DARPA and the soldier-enhancing technologies being investigated by various research teams, Sullivan waited four days and then posted a link to the very same article on his own blog. Presumably he felt four days was a long enough grace period to deny us our duly deserved hat tip.

Mr. Sullivan, I enjoy your blog and I respect the fact that you approach every issue with the intention of discovering your opinion on it, rather than settling for the party line. Even just being a conservative gay catholic blogger is pretty impressive in its independence and individualism. So please, in the spirit of this individualism, don't just try to pad your site traffic stats by linking to interesting things that we here at Stain Club took hours to meander around the internet and stumble across. I know we run an admirable blog over here, but I'm truly growing tired of all you coattail riders thinking there are shortcuts to glory. Of course, if you saw fit to send us a few (thousand) of your readers we might be able to avoid any embarrassment. Or you could just pay us to live.
