People vs. Robots
I tried to do something helpful earlier and it backfired on me. In an attempt to cut down on the error messages from the various search engine robots hitting this site I decided to redirect an old directory to this new blog on the home page. Problem is, that breaks other scripts running on the same directory. So now I choose: do I help the robots or help the people?
For now, I choose people, although the logs say that robots outnumber people 8 to 1 on this site. Perhaps someday that trend will reverse and my errors will subside. Until then, no such luck.
