Follow up about my Russian fan(s)

It'd been disturbing me a little.  What do the Russians find so fascinating about my blog?  Could I be on a KGB watch-list?  (Yes, I grew up during the Cold War.)

And I finally looked up the referring site.  They're a known spam site.  Not that I want spammers, but why don't they want to spam my page?  Am I doing something wrong?  AM I NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR SPAM?  I mean, I'd have to remove the spam comments and all, but I'm not sure if I should be offended.

Hello world!

What a way to start - a reference to the first C program most people learn (or what they used to teach, at least).

For those who aren't huge Heinlein fans, my blog name is a reference to one of his books, Podkayne of Mars.

This site will surely evolve into something different (including the look), for now, I'm just getting the first terrifying post out of the way.  This place may include some math, science, humour, random musings, and zombies.  (Why yes, my avatar is a custom one from Plants vs. Zombies.)


P.S.  The font's pretty awful, isn't it?  And yet somehow I love it.  Will likely be changed in the future, but it stays for now.

UPDATED:  Changed the main body font already.  Don't know if this one is staying yet.
